Uncle Tom's Cabin: the serialization before it became a book...

While the story was still being serialized, publisher John P. Jewett contracted with Stowe to turn Uncle Tom's Cabin into a book. Convinced the book would be popular, Jewett made the unusual decision (for the time) to have six full-page illustrations engraved for the first printing. Published in book form on March 20, 1852, the novel sold 3,000 copies on that day alone, and over 300,000 within the first year.

The complete serialization appeared almost entirely in the National Era before the book was published, with an overlap of just ten days. Subscriptions to the Era increased by nearly 5,000 during the serialization.
Four pages, great to have in never-bound, never trimmed condition just as sold on the streets. minor wear at the fold & margins, a discrete archival mend on page 3, nice condition.  Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
