THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, England, Jan. 4, 1862   The front page has prints: "The Falls of the Riviere Du Loup, In Lower, or Eastern Canada" and: "Riviere Du Loup, or Fraserville, on the St. Lawrence, the Eastern Terminus of the Grand Trunk Railway".
Prints inside include: "The Slidell & Mason Case Argued at the American Bar" "Eruption of Mount Vesuvius"; a full page print: "The Falls of the Chaudiere, Near Quebec". Also several black-bordered prints on: "The Funeral of His Late Royal Highness the Prince Consort" who was Prince Albert, Queen Victoria's husband. The back page has a nice print of: "The 'Newsboy' " (used by us as our logo).
England had a vested interest in the Civil War, supporting the Confederacy because of its great need for Southern cotton.  
The complete issue, with Supplement, very nice condition.
