There is no color cover page on this issue, however, the front page of this issue (which is present - and shown - is an illustration of "'Who Done Say Dat Dey Ain't No Sandy Claws?' " by Kemble.

This is the Christmas issue and so it has many poems and short stories with color tinted illustrations. There is an illustration of "A New Light on an Old Subject" by Harry Grant Dart and the double page illustration is of "Bearers of Gifts" by J. Geoffroy which is also color-tinted. There is also a full page illustration of "'Hello, Santa Claus!' " by John Newton Howitt and much more.

Other advertisements of the day are included as well, helping to portray life at the turn of the century.

The issue has edge tears, browning, and rubbing.  Many prints are worth framing, but view images for details on condition.
