General Notes
Note
Notes: Purchased in Hoboken at Davis Stationery on Washington Street; newspapers were scarce in the city during the initial days of the flooding and power outages - road access was restricted plus very few places were open then to receive or sell papers - the store that sold this copy was using a few candles for lighting and doing cash only sales.
