November 29, 1890
HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, Nov. 29, 1890  Certainly the prime print in this issue is the very nice doublepage centerfold by Frederic Remington captioned: "Football - A Collision At The Ropes", this issue having small binding holes at this central fold (see). Among the many other prints are: "The Flower Show at Madison Square Garden" which is the entire front page; "Launch of the Armored Cruiser 'Maine' At the Brooklyn Navy Yard" which would come into American consciousness 8 years later when sunk in the Spanish-American War, and more.
Sixteen pages, very nice condition save for the mentioned binding holes.
