1856 “THE LITTLE PILGRIM” – 3 ORIGINAL ISSUES (PRE-CIVIL WAR) – 1 FRAMED
Rare set of three original 1856 issues of The Little Pilgrim, a 19th-century illustrated children’s publication edited by Trace Greenwood and published in Philadelphia.
This lot includes one beautifully framed issue along with two additional matching unframed issues. These are authentic pre-Civil War newspapers with detailed engraved illustrations and classic Victorian-era typography.
DETAILS:
• Three original issues from 1856 (not reproductions)
• One issue professionally framed (included)
• Two additional matching issues unframed
• Illustrated front pages on each
• Published in Philadelphia
CONDITION:
• Age-related toning, foxing, and fold lines
• Edge wear and minor tears consistent with 160+ year-old paper
• Framed piece displays very well
WHY THIS SET STANDS OUT:
• Pre-Civil War American print history
• Illustrated antique newspapers (harder to find)
• Matching set with framed display piece
• Ideal for collectors or vintage wall decor
A unique opportunity to own and display authentic 19th-century illustrated publications.
Ships securely with care.
