Collier's.
Published June 17th, 1911, Springfield, Ohio by P.F. Collier & Sons Company.
30 pages. Text in English. Illustrated throughout. Nice assortment of dated advertising as well, often illustrated.

Nice early 20th century American magazine with pleasing visual content. Cover art by Waldo Bowser. Includes photo page on Death of Siam ruler.

Binding remains clean, tight, and sound, various mostly small signs of age, time and handling, nothing offensive or major. Overall a nice looking example.

Small age flaws or defects include possible random old creasing, string binding is loosened, edge chipping, tiny nicks along the spine, 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. A soft crease (likely from original mailing) runs down the center.

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.
