THE GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, London, June, 1753  The main feature of this issue is: "The Bill Permitting the Jews to be Naturalized by Parliament..." which was a significant event in Judaica history and takes over a full page of text (see for portions).
There is much other good content in this issue including a full page taken up with text and an engraving headed: "View and Description of the Island of Capri". The text is presented vertically  (unusual format) and is very descriptive of this famous island in the the Naples harbor in Italy. Also "Geographical Description of Louisiana" which begins: "Louisiana is a country in North America bounded on the south by the gulph of Mexico, on the east by Carolina, an English colony, and part of Canada; and on the west by New Mexico, on the north, part of it is bounded by Canada..." with much more.
The text is extremely descriptive and takes close to three pages (photos show portions). While several plates are included, the plate with the engraving of the Charleston church is not present (see images).   Complete in 48 pages, measures 5 by 8 inches and in nice condition. The full title/index page features an engraving of St. John's Gate.

A very nice pre-Revolutionary War magazine from the "mother country" with a wide range of varied content including news of the day, political reports, literary items, and other unusual tidbits. This was the first periodical to use the word "magazine" in its title, having begun in 1731 and lasting until 1907.
