Iron Age Masthead

Birmingham Iron Age
1874-1887

The Birmingham Iron Age began publication on February 12, 1874 when the city of Birmingham, Alabama was only 26 months old.  The original publishers were Duval, Roberts and Persinger but during the early years ownership changed many times. On May 1, 1884 the name of the weekly newspaper was changed to The Weekly Iron Age.

The digital images in this collection were scanned from microfilm copies (negative and positive) owned by the Birmingham Public Library. There are missing issues throughout the date span.

*The text within the newspaper issues is searchable. It was mechanically scanned but not manually proofread. The poor physical condition of the newspapers and their microfilm images has resulted in many words that are either not indexed correctly or indexed at all.
