"Los Angeles Daily Star," Volume 10, Number 243, October 16, 1875. The newspaper has the title at the top with an image of agriculture, a railroad, two hands clasped in a handshake, and a center star at the center of the masthead. Below is the city of publication, day and date, and volume and issue number. On the first page are five columns of advertisements and three columns of state and national news. Page two has two editorials and the rest is taken up with advertisements, which also completely make up the third page. Some of these ads concern corporations that include F. P. F. Temple as a principal. Page four has four-and-three-quarters columns of local news, including court and real estate listings. There are three-and-a-quarter columns of advertising that make up the rest of the page. The name of original owner, L. P. Fisher, a newspaper publisher with the Santa Monica Outlook then an agent in San Francisco, is in pencil and near it is a stamp from the Bancroft Library on the front page. With brittleness, some soiling, page darkening, losses, tears, some separation of the center fold, and general wear, the item is in poor condition.Lexicon
