December 30, 1871

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, December 30, 1871  The full front page is the famous Thomas Nast illustration of: "Santa Claus's Mail." which is very displayable.
Inside is a full pg. illus. of "Christmas in Virginia - A Present from the Great House." Full pg. illus. of "A Roman Catholic Mission from England to the 'Heathens' of America." Doublepage centerfold of "Witchcraft in 1871."  which is damaged. Two 1/2 pg. illus. of "Chain Gang in the Cathedral Plaza, Havana" and "Innocence and Guilt." 1/2 pg. portrait of "The Prince of Whales." Two 2/3 pg. illus. of "Do You Love Me? He Whispered, with his Lips Close at her Ear" and "Remember What I Told You about Launcelot Linzie! He Whispered, Fiercely."
The issue still has the "Supplement" issue which includes a nice full page print: "The Christmas Dread" by Jules Taverner.
Sixteen pages plus the 8 pg. supplement, a tear at the blank spine does effect the "Christmas Dread" print a bit but no other prints. The "Santa Claus's Mail" image is in very nice condition.
