As shown. See all photos. Found among my mother’s many eclectic things. Evident damage due to foxing. Listing anyway because it still may interest someone. It’s just the single page engraving of Edgar Allan Poe. Biography not included. (It wasn’t there, just a handful of torn out pages akin to this of some other famous authors.)
6” x 9.75”
“The Contributors”
Painted by A.C. Smith
Engraved by Welch & Walter
[EAP autograph is part of the magazine page; not rare or singular to this item]
A wee bit more background on the whole work, which I sadly don’t have intact/in full:
“Important first printing of a Poe biography and also a portrait engraving of the author. Very scarce. Numerous other pieces of fiction and non fiction by other notable authors. Plates both color and black and white.”
“Edgar Allan Poe became the editor of Graham's in February 1841 and soon was publishing the harsh critical reviews for which he became known.”
