This publication measures 16 ½ inches X 11 1/4 inches. This issue includes a one-page SUPPLEMENT WITH COMMENTARY ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE. As we celebrate a century and a half since the Civil War, this 100th anniversary edition is already more than a half-century old! The series of Civil War issues of Harper’s Weekly were reprinted—exact replicas of the original with the same art and articles—each REPRINTED 100 years to the publication date of the original by Living History, Inc. Beautiful prints and informative articles of battles, politics and personalities of the day. This has general edge and corner wear. THE GREATEST FLAW ON THIS IS THE SILVERFISH NIBBLING AT THE BOTTOM EDGE IN THE MIDDLE. Not mint, but fairly gently read, and a very tough find! Take it home with you! GOOD LUCK!
