Please note that this is a reprint, not an original New York Times newspaper. You get front page only. Lets say back side of the front page has front page from March 10, 1862. So each page has front page from another date. So this is not a complete newspaper. It has 4 different front pages from 1862. That said it looks nice. I don't see any torn parts. Paper is old and dry and yellow. It is darker at the edges. It shows normal patina for a 100 year old newspaper. It is sold as pictured. You get only what is pictured. so please look at the pictures above. shipping is free within USA.
