The American Manufacturer The American Manufacturer The American Manufacturer was a newspaper published in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States, on a mostly weekly basis from 1830 until 1842. The paper was Democratic in its political leanings, and stood out as radical and provocative. Its successor by merger was the "Pittsburgh Post", which by further consolidation became the "Pittsburgh Post-Gazette". In February, 1830, William B. Conway issued a prospectus for a new weekly newspaper to be called "The American Manufacturer". He announced that the first issue would appear on March 6 of the same year, and set the subscription price at $2 per annum. Conway
