Brooklyn Eagle (sold) (1841 - 1955)
Brooklyn Eagle (1841 – 1955; 1960 – 1963) was a daily newspaper published in Brooklyn that at one point was the afternoon paper with the largest circulation in the U.S. Its editors included Walt Whitman and the paper was closely connected with the Democratic Party in New York. It closed during a long strike in 1955 and was briefly revived in the early 1960s before folding again. A much smaller-scale newspaper reviving the name Brooklyn Eagle has been in publication since 1996.

A rare, highly-detailed, and curious 1913 map of the Borough of Queens, with maps of Manhattan, the Bronx, and Long Island on the verso. The map reveals Queens during its most explosive period of growth - as such, it is highly speculative, despite a misleading level of seemingly precise detail based upon prospective (but often unrealized) development schemes.
