Illustrated World.
Published May, 1918, Chicago by R.T. Miller.
c. 138 pages. Text in English. Profusely illustrated throughout. Nice assortment of dated advertising as well, often illustrated.

Nice early 20th century American current events magazine with pleasing visual content. A little known and really great magazine of this early 20th century period in American journalism, most articles with several b&w photos which likely would be difficult images to see elsewhere. Seems possible some/ many of the images may be unique to this mag and may not have appeared elsewhere afterwards, possibly to this day (?). Hundreds of photos, hours of fun reading. Human history outside of what you see in the standard history books.

Binding remains clean, tight, and sound, typical short edge nicks and splits, small chipping, various mostly small signs of age, time and handling, nothing offensive or major. Overall a nice looking example with majority of the original spine paper (!).

Small age flaws or defects include possible random old creasing, edge chipping, small light old staining, etc. Overall entirely acceptable example of what is likely a scarce survival. The pictures give a very good sense of how the item survives.

Virtually all periodicals of this era are somewhat scarce today as loose complete issues. Like most random survivals of old periodical printing, any specific example (like this one) is likely among a relative handful still extant. As each decade goes back from 1950, the rate of scarcity for any specific magazine or paper item increases noticeably.

Text block remains overall clean, and displays a pleasing age patina.

Magazine remains attractive on the shelf. It displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws easy to overlook or forgive. 

Please review photos for more detail and our best attempt to convey how this antique item survives. This item is not new- it is old and has been handled by different owners in the past.
