Description: HARPER'S NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE VOLUME LXXCI JUNE TO NOVEMBER 1885 1885 HARPER & BROTHERS, PUBLISHERS NEW YORK Half-bound Leather 972 pages Bound volumes of Harper's Monthly magazine are a strange thing; some have famous and noteworthy writers while others have great illustrations and interesting topics. This volume falls into the latter category with so many great illustrations to show in the sample pictures we had a hard time making up our minds which ones to use.
