- Description:
- One advertisement poster with the headline, "J. W. Johnston, The Great Land Dealer, Found Dead in the Center of Jefferson Avenue, by Two Jet Black Monguagons!" The poster is printed in black text on white paper and advertises an auction of lots that was to take place on November 14, 1870. The lots were located in the vicinity of Lafayette and Twenty-second Street. Additional text gives further details of the lot locations and street names as well as the names of existing property owners. It appears that the headline was intended to draw attention and interest, but was not true since the last line on the poster notes, "For further particulars apply to J. W. Johnston or Walter Sanderson."
