[ [ "A Dog-Collar for the Prince" / New York Times ]


The New York Times is an American daily newspaper which began publishing in 1851 and continues to this day. It has won more Pulitzer Prizes than any other newspaper, and has the 3rd-largest circulation in the United States.


This item appeared in the July 18, 1860, issue, and is one of a number of references to the future King Edward VII of Britain receiving a Newfoundland dog upon his visit, in 1860, to Newfoundland, Britain's oldest colony.
