For sale, one of my personal favorite Harper's Weekly, this is the 13 July 1861 issue including two excellent prints, THE CABINET AT WASHINGTON and A SLAVE AUCTION AT THE SOUTH. I always liked this issue because almost every page is devoted to pictures, unlike most Harper's, it is not the rarest issue but outside of the key issues, this is my favorite. The Lincoln print and the Slave Auction prints are nice and clean, well-inked strikes with no foxing or staining. This issue also includes two fullpage portraits of Major General Winfield Scott , at age 41 and 75 (current image). T are only three fox spots on the slave auction print, otherwise it is in perfect condition. This page was cut from many issues, it is intact This is a very nice piece of black Americana. Print is rare as it contains, unlike nearly all other slave prints, an early Confederate flag hanging in the background. Obviously it is very difficult to find engravings of slave auctions with the early Confederate flag. Also a fullpage portrait of Major General John C. Fremont, In His Prarie Costume. Backpage is a cartoon of Lincoln and Jeff Davis, see photo. T are also other battle scenes and war coverage, one of the best Civil War issues of 1861 outside the key issues like Bull Run or Lincoln's Inauguration. From my personal collection. E-mail with any questions, this is your time for right of inspection, just like a real auctions. No returns unless item is grossly misrepresented (has never happened yet).
