SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, New York, May 21, 1881.
* Great Brooklyn Bridge under construction issue
* Prints
Most of the front page is taken up with a very nice print captioned:
* Suspending The Floor Beams of the East River Bridge
with a related article on the front page as well titled: "Progress of the Great Suspension Bridge Between New York and Brooklyn" which carries over to an inside page, where is found another print captioned: "The Floor Beams From Below."
A nice display issue on the Brooklyn Bridge, which would not be complete for another two years. Great condition, 16 pages.
