Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

[1], 289-382, p. Includes illustrations. Includes the music for The Little Cradle and the Little Grave by O. M. Brewster. Page 301 has the date of April, 1861 Publication date is unclear, but if volume LXXXIX was printed in 1874, volume LXII should have been published in January-June 1861, since Godley's was published in two volumes per year. There is internal information that this is the April, 1861 issue. Godey's Lady's Book, alternatively known as Godey's Magazine and Lady's Book, was a United States women's magazine that was published inPhiladelphia. It was the most widely circulated magazine in the period before the Civil War. Its circulation rose from 70,000 in the 1840s to 150,000 in 1860. In the 1860s Godey's considered itself the "queen of monthlies". The magazine was published by Louis A. Gogey from Philadelphia for 48 years (1830-1878). Godey intended to take advantage of the popularity of gift books, many of which were marketed specifically to women. Each issue contained poetry, articles, and engravings created by prominent writers and other artists of the time. Sarah Josepha Hale (author of "Mary Had a Little Lamb") was its editor from 1837 until 1877 and only published original, American manuscripts. Although the magazine was read and contained work by both men and women. Hale published three special issues that only included work done by women.When Hale started at Godey's, the magazine had a circulation of ten thousand subscribers. Two years later, it jumped to 40,000 and by 1860 had 150,000 subscribers.In 1845, Louis Godey began copyrighting each issue of the magazine to prevent other magazine and newspaper editors from infringing their texts. This move, a first in America, was criticized by editors at the Baltimore Saturday Visiter. They called it a "narrowly selfish course" and stated that Godey would "rue it bitterly" Poor. No dust jacket as issued. Partially disbound. Cover gone, remainder torn and chiped at edges, some pages separated. Some edge tearing. Some page discoloration. Scarce in any condition. This appears to be an incomplete issue, missing the last page.
