View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
The American Apollo (January 6, 1792 - December 25, 1794) was a newspaper published in Boston, Massachusetts in the late 18th century, featuring "political and commercial intelligence, and other entertaining matter."[1] It was issued by printer Joseph Belknap,[2] along with Alexander Young[3] (as "Belknap & Young," January–May 1792) and Thomas Hall[4] (as "Belknap & Hall," May 1792-July 1794)[5][6] on State Street.[7][8] In 1792, the newly formed Massachusetts Historical Society's "collections were at first published in ... the American Apollo. "[9][10] The newspaper ceased in December 1794.
