Sobre este artículo
Folio (16" x 11 1/2") laminated mint green colored boards, illustrated. Top cover detached, spine somewhat bent and cracked, chips and wear at extremities, one or two signatures a little loose, small bookplate on front pastedown, a bit of foxing, some browning and aging, not collated, but issues appear complete. This is a collection of the Illustrated London News that was probably used to promote subscriptions. The date on the tile page indicates 1852, but the actual issues seem to run from March 30, 1844 to November 30, 1844. This volume contains over 20 issues. While some issues may say reprint, these reprints were done around 1852, for what appears some promotional effort. This volume contains some of the earlier issues of this publication, which began in May 1842. It contains some interesting news and illustrations, including a short story and illustration of a copper balloon for flying in Paris (March 30, 1844), the London Stock Exchange (April 13, 1844), an article and illustrations on Emigration to Sydney (April 13, 1844), a visit from the King of France (June 1, 1844), and an article on currency and income taxes (June 1, 1844).
