ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS 1868 UK Bound Volume Newspaper
 
Image001
 
Here is a complete, genuine historic old newspaper with the following title, date and description: Here is a complete bound volume of the first illustrated newspaper in the world, THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, England, containing all 26 weekly issues for January 4 to June 27, 1868.

An absolute treasure-trove of terrific prints, and this volume is in much better condition than most. Having been a dealer in this (and other) titles for over 33 years we have handled hundreds of these bound volumes. The internal pages and prints in this volume are among the best we have seen.

Mentions are only some of the highlights, and the photos are just a sampling of those within this volume, there being simply too many to photograph all.

There is a very large number of prints on the "Expedition to Abyssinia" and other prints on Abyssinia. Some of the other prints include: "Winter Sports In Canada" showing moose hunting; "The Central Pacific Railway, North America" includes a view of Donner Lake; "...Starting for a Kangaroo Hunt...Lake Albert, South Australia"; "The Bay of Samana, St. Domingo, Lately Purchased by the United States"; three pages of: "Prince Alfred In Australia"; fullpg. of: "The Great Fire at Chicago" has two prints; "The Inland Sea Of Japan"; centerfold: "Hobart Town, the Capital of Tasmania"; centerfold with 2 prints of the harbor of Sydney, Australia;  two prints of the silver mines in Mexico; halfpg: "Queen Emma of the Sandwich Islands Leaving...Honolulu Harbour" (Hawaii); text only on: "President Johnson's Acquittal"; "The Royal Party at Ascot Races" and so much more.

Included are two color prints, both double-pages: "Little Woman", and: "Watchfulness" (see).

Contains 644 pages, still bound in original three-quarter leather bindings showing minor wear and some loss, with a more modern brown paper covering. The issues can be easily disbound for individual issue sale.
