George Washington’s 1st State of the Union Address. FIRST NEWSPAPER PRINTING!
Gazette of the United States
January 9, 1790
The very first printing of George Washington’s first state of the union address is printed right here in the Jan 9, 1790 Gazette of the United States! Printed the very next day after he gave his address, and in the very same city he gave it! It is extremely rare and desirable to have an 18th century paper containing a report of the event, THE DAY AFTER IT OCCURRED! Previously estimated by Sotheby’s at $7,000 to $9,000, this paper will anchor a collection.
