Fifth Avenue, New York (1892)... Beautiful full-color illustration...



Item # 688179

May 05, 1892

FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY, New York, May 5, 1892  The front page of this issue is very colorful and shows a horse-drawn coach traveling along a busy New York street, captioned: "A May Morning on Fifth Avenue".
Color front pages of Leslie's were quite rare during the late 19th century.  This is certainly one of the earliest, and perhaps the best we've seen.  The beautiful and vibrant colors make it wonderful for display.  A bit of residue at the spine, but otherwise this issue is in very good condition.
