This historic Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Newfoundland...



Item # 669909

June 23, 1849

THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, England, June 23, 1849  Amongst the many interesting prints perhaps the most notable would be that of the: "New Cathedral of St. John, Newfoundland". The same page has a related article on its on-going construction.
Wikipedia notes that construction began in 1847 and would not be completed until 1885.
Note that the print of the cathedral in Wikipedia is the identical print in this issue.
Sixteen pages, very nice condition.
