About This Item
1856 ENORMOUS Ballou Pictorial Magazine Revolutionary War Boston Tea Party
Maturin Ballou was a 19th-century American publisher who is known for his work on periodicals, magazines, and journals. He is most famous for his 'Pictorial' which was highly influenced by the Illustrated London News. Ballou himself said of the work that it was to be
"a weekly literary mélange of notable events of the day. Its columns are devoted to original tales, sketches, and poems, by the best American authors and the cream of the domestic and foreign news; the whole well spiced with wit and humor." (issue 1)
This particular issue contains news and current events stories, but also includes essays on American history including a report on George Washington at Valley Forge and the famous Boston Tea Party!
