Description
   This issue of The Zionist is labelled Vol.1, issue 11 and it is dated June, 1908. The periodical began publication in August, 1907 and was originally published in Washington, D.C. It was a monthly which was sold for $.10 an issue or for $1.00 per year. The editor was Nathan Cohen. Articles included news about American Zionist affairs as well as news about Zionism around the world.This issue also has an article on "The Jews of Kairun and Tunis," a "Socials and Personals" column and advertisements. This issue also has a supplement called The Daily Bulldozer: triumph of journalism. That seems to be a parody; a fun-type addition to the regular monthly.
