Sobre este artículo
Philadelphia: George R. Graham, 1844. First Edition . Hardcover. Good+. Title pages and contents pages (with accurate contents) say that these are volumes 24 and 25; however, the individual issues are numbered as vols. 25 & 26. I can't explain this. A good plus copy in a fine new binding by Milagro of Corrales, of green cloth with beautiful marbled endpapers. Some foxing on plates, very little elsewhere. Contributions to this remarkable magazine include: The Lady's Yes, Pain in Pleasure and Loved Once by Elizabeth B. Barrett (Elizabeth Barrett Browning); Terpsichore by Oliver Wendell Holmes; John Shaw and 2 Sketches of Naval Men: John Barry and John Templer Shubrick by James Fenimore Cooper; New York Fountains and Astor Baths by Catharine M. Sedgwick; Review of Orion, Our Contributors: Robert T. Conrad (unattributed) and the poem Dreamland by Edgar Allan Poe, plus several other unattributed reviews (Poe no longer was editor in this year but still an important contributor); Childhood, Nuremberg, Annie of Tharaw and The Arsenal at Springfield by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow; Earth's Holocaust by Nathaniel Hawthorne; A Mystical Ballad and New Year's Eve, 1844 by James Russell Lowell; The Waning Moon and The Paradise of Tears by William Cullen Bryant. In the later volume would probably have been the 1st appearance of 'The Raven' if the editors had not foolishly turned it down. (It was published by Nathaniel Parker Willis in his New York Mirror in 1845.) Includes also "Our Contributors nos. 10-16 (Joseph C. Neal, Nathaniel Parker Willis, Robert T. Conrad, James Fenimore Cooper, Joseph R. Chandler, Ann S. Stephens, and Walter Colton), with an engraved portrait of each author, and a number of the famous 'fashion plates', 2 of which are hand-colored. There is also an extraordinary hand-colored plate of a peacock at the end.
