Charlestown Massachusetts in 1854...



Item # 217009

September 09, 1854

GLEASON'S PICTORIAL, Boston, Massachusetts, September 9, 1854.

* Charlestown Massachusetts town scene
* Suspension Bridge, Niagara

This title was formatted much like the more popular "Harper's Weekly" being tabloid-size with several pages of prints. This title actually precedes Harper's, which did not begin publication until 1857. Within this issue are prints captioned: "Battlefield of Waterloo" "View of Charlestown, Mass." "Sand Key Lighthouse, Florida" "Suspension Bridge, Niagara" "Edieville, New York" and more, all having related text as well. 16 pages with little margin wear and minor foxing, otherwise in good condition.
