The Illustrated London News. Volume I, I-XXXIV (Saturday, 14 May - Saturday, 31 December, 1842). (34 ISSUES. Vol. 1, 1-34). [FIRST ISSUE, FIRST COMPLETE VOLUME, FIRST COMPLETE YEAR].
London, William Little, 1843 (i.e. 1842). 1st Edition. Hardcover. The paper's first 34 issues bound in one volume. Imperial folio. Paginated consecutively. Pp. vi, 554. Illustrated throughout. HARDCOVER, bound in the original publisher's half calf and marbled boards, spine decorated, lettered and dated in gilt, sides gilt ruled; binding rubbed & chafed in places, worn in places, restored in places, withal a good binding; few closed tears without loss at bottom of leaves. In a very good condition. Overall a well preserved, tightly bound, clean, presentable copy. ~ FIRST EDITION. The paper's first issue, first complete volume, first complete year. Published as a volume with Title, Preface and Index, in 7 January, 1843. Rare survivor, a landmark in the history of journalism. The Illustrated London News was the world's first illustrated weekly newspaper. The first issue, 16 pages with 32 woodcuts, appeared on Saturday, 14 May, 1842, marking a revolution in journalism and news reporting. Completely exceeding the publishers' expectations, it had to be reprinted several times that day; the issue went through five reprints and sold 26,000 copies; the present issue is of the fourth printing. (Issues 4-8; 10-16; 18-20; 24; 27; 28; 30; 34 are first reprint; issue no. 2 is 3rd reprint; no. 9 is 2nd reprint.) Five issues later, it was time for jubilation: "Probably, in the whole annals of Newspaper History, the triumphant success of 'The Illustrated London News' is without a parallel; it has received from the public a welcome, warmer and wider than we could anticipated even in the buoyant enthusiasm of our first ambition. From the length and breadth of the Empire we have received the most flattering testimonials." The present volume contains all first 34 issues and a Supplement. Each issue is stamped at bottom with the legendary red Tax Stamp. Also present is Issue no. 15, a rare collectible in itself, which appeared with the erroneous header "No. 10, July 16" instead of "No. 15, August 20". It is neatly corrected here by contemporary hand. Y-1 .

Attack on Waggons, on Crossing a Drift in the Fish River. Print from the Supplement to Issue No. 575 Dd. August 21st 1852.
Illustrated London News. August 21st 1852. One original print, hand-coloured. Approx 260mm wide x 180mm high, framed 415mm x 340mm. Attractive copy in excellent frame. Sold framed (not recommended for overseas sale due to freight costs). The Xhosa Wars, now generally known as the Frontier Wars, were a series of nine wars between the amaXhosa people and European settlers from 1779 to 1879 in what is now the Eastern Cape in South Africa. This image is from the 8th Frontier War which was known as "Mlanjeni's War", after the prophet Mlanjeni who arose among the homeless Xhosa and who predicted that the Xhosa would be unaffected by the colonists' bullets. The 8th frontier war was the most bitter and brutal in the series of Xhosa wars. It lasted over two years and ended in the complete subjugation of the Ciskei Xhosa with the loss of most of their land and their incorporation into the Cape Colony.

Festival of Britain. The Exhibition's Opening-Special Number
London, 1951. 61pp inc adverts and illustrations, lovely coloured double-page aerial view of the Festival showing the lay-out and all the chief pavilions. 37x26, stapled wraps. Staples rusting, wraps a bit rubbed and slightly chipped, central spread loose from the staples but otherwise undamaged, better than average condition for this item though still flawed. Although the cover seems oddly unsympathetic to the ethos of the festival, this is actually a superb visual survey of this great event, with fascinating and unusual photos, artist views etc. Many photos show people enjoying themselves in the various pavilions.
