FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED NEWSPAPER, New York, April 22, 1882 This famous title produced many issues with some very desirable illustrations, but this issue, with the front page portrait of noted outlaw Jesse James, is arguably the most coveted. The caption beneath the full front page illustration reads: "Missouri--Jesse James, the Notorious Desperado, Killed at St. Joseph, April 3d." This is perhaps the most displayable newspaper to be found reporting on the Western outlaws. This issue is missing half of the inside pages, being the 8 central pages, and which included the article on Jesse James referenced in the front page caption. This issue measures 11 3/4 by 16 1/2 inches, was never bound nor trimmed, has some browning at the edges of the margins (see photos) and some light soiling, but is generally in nice condition.

HARPER'S WEEKLY Illustrated Newspaper from New York, Nov. 10, 1860. This is a terrific issue for display as the entire front page is taken up with a nice illustration of Abraham Lincoln, beardless (see photos), captioned: "Hon. Abraham Lincoln, Born in Kentucky, Feb. 12, 1809". Certainly one of the more desirable issues from the Lincoln era, from before he became president. There is other good content within this 16 page issue as well, with the doublepage centerfold containing a print captioned: 'Reading the Returns of the Presidential Election' Nice & important issue! Also, an intriguing article headed "Death of Grizzly Adams", the fabled mountain man upon whom a television series was based. Just a slight bit of browning or light foxing, generally very nice condition and certainly very displayable.

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, May 26, 1860  This issue has become the most desired pre-Civil War issues of this famous illustrated newspaper, as it did much to propel Abraham Lincoln to national prominence, and is one of relatively few published portraits of Lincoln without his beard. This issue announces, in a very dramatic way, the selection of Lincoln as the Republican candidate for President of the United States with the large front page portrait of him. A somewhat unknown in national politics till this point, they even spelled his name wrong in the caption: "Hon. Abram Lincoln, of Illinois, Republican Candidate For President". The balance of the front page is a very nice & detailed textual portrait of Lincoln which carries over to take most of the first column of page 2 as well. This is followed by a biographical sketch of: "Hon. Hannibal Hamlin", Lincoln's running mate. Inside the issue under "Domestic Intelligence" is further content concerning "The Republican Convention" "The Platform", and "The Nomination" which shows the ballot results in each of the three Presidential ballots (see). Other images in this issue include "Chime of 13 Bells for Christ Church, Cambridge, Mass., Manufactured by Messrs. Henry N. Hooper & Co., of Boston", three full pages on "The Japanese Embassy" delegation in Washington & at the White House. Complete in 16 pages.

" and it continues with: "What looks like a veritable exception to that rule was reported in the newspapers of December 19...recorded that a flying machine made by Wilbur and Orville Wright, of Dayton, Ohio, was tried at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina...and few three miles against the wind, descending gracefully on the spot selected by Wilbur Wright, the navigator aboard. This machine had no balloon but was compounded of a big box-kite & a small gasolene engine..." It then goes on with further details (see photos for full text). An extremely significant report which was not reported in all newspapers of the day given the number of hoaxes and false reports, as noted in this article's leading statement. Additionally the centerfold spread is an article titled: "Italian Without A Master. -- By Mark Twain" which includes many graphics (see). Also included is the "inside" title page (see) featuring a political cartoon by W. A. Rogers: "Prospects OF A Very Happy New Year."  Some wear at the spine, & in the lower right corner, has binding residue in the left margin, otherwise good. 30 pages.

Santa Claus!" showing a girl on the telephone, and the other is: "Hello! Little One!" showing Santa Claus on the phone as well. This is the classic portly, jolly image of Santa (Nast is credited with creating the modern version of Santa Claus) with a pipe in his hand, a rosy nose, and in a fur-trimmed suit (see). A great two page spread for display! Other prints include a full ftpg: "The New Orleans Exposition--The Genius of the Industrial Arts Awakened in the South" and a fullpg: "The New Orleans Exposition--Scene on Wharf, & Unloading in the Main Hall"; a fullpg: "572 Feet High--Setting the Capstone on the Washington Monument"; a fullpg: "In Luck" drawn by A. B. Frost, showing a man having just shot a turkey; and a halfpg. by Nast: "Cutting Mistletoe in the South".
