This is the June 6, 1857 issue of THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS newspaper. This newspaper contains more than twice as many pages as it's American counterparts Harper's Weekly and Frank Leslie, and has many more illustration. This issue is in very good condition, the pages are clean and bright, except for some minor age spots around the edges of the pages from handling, but nothing serious, and they don't affect the engravings. The pages are flat, with no tears. As can be seen from the list of articles and illustrations this publication contains many historical stories of the time, and reports of the issues that faced the people of Great Britain at the time.
