Cloth. Zustand: Good Only. First edition. A pair of uniformly bound copies of The Illustrated London News, Volume 27 and 44, richly illustrated throughout with engravings and full page illustrations. Uniformly bound in half cloth with paper-covered boards. Comprising Volume 27, with issues from July to December 1855, and Volume XLIV with issues from January to June 1864 of this periodical, which was the world's first illustrated weekly news magazine. Illustrated with a volume title page, and with numerous vignette and full page illustrations throughout. With two folding plates depicting a map and scene of Paris to Volume 27. With the large folding plate of Glasgow and two double-page colour plates to Volume 44.Notable events covered in these volumes include the Queen Victoria's visit to Paris in 1855, events surrounding the Crimean War, the birth of Prince Albert Victor in 1864, and much more. Inspired by how the Weekly Chronicle always sold more copies when it featured an illustration, printer and newsagent Herbert Ingram had the idea of publishing a weekly newspaper that would contain pictures in every edition. By 1863 The Illustrated London News was selling more than 300,000 copies every week, enormous figures in comparison to other British newspapers of the time. The work is credited with moving illustrations from purely a satirical device in mainstream news, to a credible and factual reporting tool, publishing over 750,000 illustrations during its existence. Uniformly bound in half cloth with paper-covered boards. Externally, sound, with rubbing to the boards, causing the paper to lift, with chipping to the extremities. Endpapers renewed.
