MID-WEEK PICTORIAL, "An Illustrated Weekly by the New York Times", Nov. 6, 1919  

* Pioneer of American photojournalism

This title began during World War I as a “War Extra” to handle the surge of war images coming from Europe. After the war, it continued as a standalone weekly pictorial publication. It is considered a pioneer of American photojournalism, using image-driven storytelling decades before magazines like Life became famous for it.
This November issue of the Mid-Week Pictorial serves as a poignant historical record of the interwar transition, capturing a moment when the world was pivoting from the trauma of the Great War to the domestic and social volatility of the "Roaring Twenties." Its significance lies in the juxtaposition of King Albert I of Belgium on the cover—symbolizing the final gasp of traditional European monarchical heroism and the gratitude of the "Old World" toward American intervention—against the chaotic interior reality of a United States undergoing a radical internal shift.
Complete in 24 pages, 11 by 16 inches, a little margin wear, generally in good condition, should be handled carefully.
