New York: Ernest Knaufft, 1894. 1894 - 1897. Pamphlet. Twenty-four issues from the period of July 1894 to March 1897. Each ivory stapled wraps, paginated consecutively over all volumes, from page 30 to 812 (although not all pages are present, as not all volumes printed within that time are present); approx. 15 pp. each on average. Several bw illustrations and the usual contemporary advertisements. Housed together in a plastic sleeve. Good. All are age-toned and becoming a bit brittle. Slightly dusty. Some covers have foxing at spine area; occasional foxing to other areas. Mostly unmarked but with a few pencil notations in margins (not all the same handwriting). No major, glaring defects. Item #162391
