Description

A very early illustrated American monthly comic magazine “Illustrated by a great many engravings, Executed by our best Artists and designed by the inimitable CRUIKSHANKS, Robert and George, - the LANDSEERS, Thomas and Edward - and our American [David Claypoole] JOHNSTON.” This issue, unrecorded in original pictorial wrappers, is possibly a unique survival.
