Harper's Weekly ORIGINAL Nov 8 1879 NAST +Streets of NY



ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Absolutely original vintage November 8, 1879 issue of Harper's Weekly. Subscription edition with mailing label on back cover--not from a Bound Volume. Strong condition, details below, clean white pages with only the slightest tone. Oversized illustrated magazine measures approximately 11-1/2" X 16-1/2".

Contents include:

Front cover: "New York Must Be Carried" featuring Tammany vs. Tilden Halls is illustrated by Thomas Nast

Huge illustration spreading two pages in the center of the issue "The Dawn of Better Days-Busy Scenes in the Streets of New York" drawn by A.B. Shults :

Top: Excavations in the Ninth Region of the Ruins--Vesuvius in the Distance -- Bottom: Excavations in Another Part of the Ninth Region

Full page as shown "Root, Hog, or Die -- Christopher Columbus Bennett has Discovered the True Indian Policy" is illustrated by Thomas Nast

Full page as shown "The Centennial Celebration of the Siege of Savannah by the Jasper Monument Association" from sketches by our Special Artist

Small illustration by Thomas Nast on back cover

GRADING - CONDITION:
Complete with pages numbered 881-896 plus Supplement numbered 897-900

Overall grades VG or 4/10 with a good many slight tears on on outer edges of pages throughout. A light stain visible near the bottom edge of the pages throughout. Bottom corner tip chipped off on several inside pages. A few light and tiny stains/spots of soiling on covers and also throughout the issue in some spots as well. A light horizontal crease runs through middle of issue.

As stated above, this is a solid original issue, subscription edition with mailing label on back cover, not taken from a bound volume. Clean white pages, though I had a problem with the images on this one and had to revert the photo to actual black and white--so let's say there is a slight tone, pages not quite as white as shown, though this is a much more accurate portrayal then the yellow-cast photos I had been showing in previous weeks. Never had any staples in binding, nor any sign that there should have been.

  • All items that I offer for sale are vintage and date to whichever date is mentioned in the title and/or listing.


  • PAYMENT:
    Payment accepted from the U.S. and around the world through PayPal. Prompt payment expected within a week at most, immediate payment most appreciated. If you require longer than a week feel free to write, I'm pretty loose as long as there's communication.


    SHIPPING NOTES:
    Please see detailed shipping rates in the eBay calculator below.

    If ordering multiple items please request an invoice. I always pull all issues ordered and charge whatever the USPS quote for multiple item orders.

    All single magazine orders ship out flat protected by a magazine hobby bag (usually BCW brand) and sandwiched between cardboard to protect from bends and bumps.

    I use the USPS for shipping.

    U.S. orders are shipped within two business days of cleared payment by First Class or Priority Mail. Express Mail ships next day.

    Outside the U.S., Priority Mail International orders ship within one business day of cleared payment. First Class International ships out 1-2 times per week.
