Included in this lot is a Rare Edition of The National Magazine, Volume 7, No. 6 , March 1898, W. W. Potter Publisher. Founded in 1894 as *The Bostonian*, the magazine was re-named *The National Magazine* in 1896 to reflect its expanded coverage of American topics and letters. It became the leading national journal of American life and Washington affairs before the rise of TIME and LIFE magazines in the 1920s and 1930s. The earliest issues from 1894-1896 featured articles on the Boston theater, music, women's clubs, and general arts and letters. These topics were covered on a national scale when the magazine expanded its coverage in the late 1890s, along with increasing coverage of international affairs. Note, this issue was published a month after the battleship USS Maine was sunk in Havana harbor and a month prior to a declaration of war against Spain. Of particular interest are the many advertisements for outlandish "miracle cures" such as "Dr. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral", and LINCOLN Spring Water, "It will clear the system of disease germs, uric acid in the blood, and prevent... Gout, Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, Diabetes, Kidney and Bladder Troubles."
This issue is in amazingly good overall condition considering it being over 120 years old. The illustrated paperback cover exhibits tears, spine is separating along the cover and pages, tear noted to one page. Age tanning and foxing exhibited. Measures 6.75"W x 9.75"L
