FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED, New York, Sept. 7, 1867
* Very early Brooklyn Bridge construction print
The front page features a print: "Boring for a Foundation for the New Suspension Bridge from Brooklyn to New York".
There is a related article on page 3. This would become the world-famous Brooklyn Bridge, not to be completed until 1883. This is one of the earliest prints related to the Brooklyn Bridge we have found, predating by nearly a year the bridge plans printed in Scientific American.
Prints within include a half-page: "Stripping, Cutting, Loading, and Hauling Sugar-Cane to the Mill, in Louisiana"; a full page: "Major-General Philip H. Sheridan"; a full page: "Boating on the Lake at Central Park".
Sixteen pages, nice condition.
