Link: The 1883 Emigrants' Guide For 1883-- immigrant ship advertising
« on: Friday 19 February 16 04:27 GMT (UK) »
https://archive.org is an online library I use a lot when I am researching my U.S. ancestors. It is a free, no registration required, collection that has among other things a lot of U.S. county and city historical gazeteers.

You can view this 1883 Guide in text or imaged copy. In it I found an original ad for the ship that brought my Scottish ancestors to the U.S. in 1883. You can copy and download individual pages for free.
