Harper's Weekly Bound Volumes V & IX Years 1861 & 1865 Civil War Illustrations

  
Please read entire listing for item details and terms of sale. Here is an original bound volumes V & IX for the years 1861 and 1865 of Harper's Weekly "A Journal of Civilization". This book begins with the week of May 11, 1861, and runs through the end of the year. The next section covers 1865 with a few weekly gaps (April 15th thru May 27th, July 15th thru Aug 26th, Sept 16th thru Oct 28th and Dec 23rd). Those missing weeks were not torn out of this book, it appears they were not part of the original binding.

An incredible display of Civil War era illustrations on 800+ pages, the book measures 16.5" x 12" and weighs almost 11 lbs. Binding is pretty good, hard covers no longer attached, pages are dry and several are loose or torn.

Overall acceptable condition for being 160 years old. Please examine photos closely for condition details. All payments are due within. If you need more time to pay, please contact me and we can work out the details, it usually won't be a problem.

The wide variety of items I sell come from local estates/auctions and are in used condition and therefore, will show some wear. I will describe the item as best I can to point out any major flaws and always welcome any additional information anyone would like to share.
