The 3 plates are still present...

Item # 714580
GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, London, September, 1791  Perhaps the highlight would be the 3 full page plates which are still present. One shows a rural setting with an elegant house, captioned: "S. E. View of Burghope House, Herefordshire". Another is a very nice: "View of Clifton Near Bristol, from a Drawing in the Collection of the Rev. Mr. Elderton".
Complete in 96 pages, full title/contents page with an engraving of St. John's Gate, 5 by 8 inches, very nice condition.

This was the first periodical to use the word "magazine" in its title, having begun in 1731 and lasting until 1907.

Item from our most recent catalog - #365 - released for April, 2026
