American Antiquarian Society Historical Periodicals Collection: Series 1

This collection presents over 500 titles dating from 1691 through 1820.

Subject strengths include but are not limited to Afro-Americana, agriculture, children’s literature, education, eighteenth-century imprints, leisure and hobbies, Masonic works, medicine, religion, science and technology, the trades, and women’s literature. Long runs of popular magazines can be found here, as well as unusual and short-lived titles, such as works published in Peru and Cuba, an early millennial publication, satirical serials, music journals, and titles printed and edited by women.
