The Connecticut Post has its origins in two newspapers: the morning edition Bridgeport Telegram and the evening edition Bridgeport Post. Prior to extensive news on the television, a morning and evening paper were not uncommon in most major cities. The material within this collection reflects the political events on a local and national scale as featured in the Post during the 1970s and 1980s.
