WORLD'S COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION ILLUSTRATED, Chicago, January, 1893  A very short-lived illustrated newspaper formatted much like Harper's Weekly but which existed solely to report on the Columbian Exposition in Chicago.

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, Dec. 20, 1884  Certainly the prime feature of this issue is the great two page spread with two prints by noted artist Thomas Nast. One is captioned: "Hello! 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 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".

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, December 13, 1873  By far the best & most desirable print in this issue is the nice full page by noted artist Winslow Homer titled: "The Morning Bell" (very nice condition: see), which has a related article on a preceding page. But there are many other prints in this issue including a full front page illustration by political cartoonist Thomas Nast captioned: "Justice." Inside are two half page illustrations of "The Hon. Noah Davis, Judge of the Supreme Court of New York" and "Russian Monument at Sebastopol." Also a full page: "Shelter for the Homeless - Night Scene in a New York Station House." and a doublepage centerfold by Thomas Nast: "Let Us Think Twice Before We Let Loose the Dogs of War.";  a half page illustration of "The Spanish Iron Clad 'Arapiles,' in the Brooklyn Navy Yard." and one-third page illustration of "The Western Entrance to the Tunnel." The "Supplement" has a two-thirds page illustration of "Sketches Around Khiva."; a full page illustration of "Cotton in Egypt." plus more. The issue is complete in 24 pages, never bound nor trimmed with wide margins, some tears at the margins but not close to any prints save for one in the "Supplement". Nice condition.

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, June 13, 1874  Although this issue features many very nice illustrations, by far the most desired would be the very nice full page print by famed artist Winslow Homer titled: "Raid On A Sand-Swallow Colony--How Many Eggs?" (see photos). The full ftpg. is a Thomas Nast political cartoon: "Jewels Among Swine." and there is a fullpg. print of African-Americans: "Wo Struck De Fustest?", a fullpg: "Fires in the Long Island Woods." and another fullpg. Nast political cartoon: "A Dead Failure". Included also is the four page Supplement. Complete in 20 pages,never bound nor trimmed, a soft fold across the center which does not distract, very nice, clean condition.

A very displayable item for any baseball collector (see photos). The full ftpg. print is by the famed Frenzeny & Tavernier, captioned: "A Saturday Noon In A Southwestern Town" showing a typical Old West street scene (see).  Other prints within include a fullpg. Thomas Nast political cartoon: "Moses Junior Viewing the Promised Land From Mount Ruin."; and a halfpg: "The New York Normal College" & a smaller print of "Professor Thomas Hunter, President of the Normal College". Complete in 16 pages, never bound nor trimmed, a few very minor margin tears, generally in very nice condition.

Frost captioned: "Still-Hunting The Moose" and another full page: "The Geysers of the Upper Basin, Yellowstone National Park" which includes 11 vignettes, each captioned. A halfpg. shows: "Sugar Plantation at Rio Grande, New Jersey" and a full page has several vignettes showing Western scenes & captioned: "Mining Life In Colorado", drawn by W. A. Rogers. But perhaps the best print is a half page captioned: "The Amateur Lacrosse Tournament at the Polo Grounds--Final Game Between the Yale and New York Clubs". Complete in 16 pages, never bound nor trimmed, a soft fold across the middle, some scattered foxing. Generally nice.

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, September 20, 1873  This issue has a tipped-in double page centerfold titled: "Snap The Whip" drawn by Winslow Homer. This print, considered by many to be the most desirable illustrations done by Homer to appear in Harper's Weekly--and arguably the most desired issue from the 60 year run of the newspaper--features several young boys playing snap-the-whip in a schoolyard (see). Another page has a brief article about the illustration, and a related poem (see). Other illustrations include, on the ftpg: "The New School-Mistress", a fullpg. inside: "Saved" being a life-saving scene on a beach, plus a halfpg. of University Hall on the campus of Northwestern University, & a report about this institution. This issue was never bound nor trimmed. The Homer centerfold has the original wide margins and has some minor browning spots at the margins (see). The actual print is in excellent condition. An excellent item for display.

SUPPLEMENT TO HARPER'S WEEKLY, July 25, 1874  Typically, whenever this very large foldout print from Harper's Weekly volumes is found, it is considerably torn, stained or damaged from constant folding & unfolding through the years. This is a rare example which is still very nice & clean and never having been bound nor trimmed. Unusual in that this print was never even archivally mended or repaired on the reverse side. Just a slight hint of light toning. The print measures about 23 by 33 inches from edge to edge, and includes considerable details of  "Saratoga Springs and Vicinity--Scene Of The Inter-Collegiate Regatta." A very large & displayable items on Saratoga.
