Description: Up for sale is an original copy of the ‘Once A Week’ illustrated weekly newspaper, later to be known as Collier's Once A Week, dated November 10, 1891. This scarce edition features large, detailed woodcut engravings such as the cover which features Chinese people gambling on Fan-Tan in a opium den, a centerfold titled "THE TYRANNICAL DEMON OF INTEMPERANCE!" that features a skeleton serpent demon, and more. This particular copy appears to be an unissued and uncut proof, making an even rarer find. The newspaper’s unique fold-out format, similar to a map, adds to its distinctive appeal. This historical document offers a fascinating glimpse into significant events and figures of the late 19th century, making it a valuable addition for collectors of vintage newspapers and unique engravings.
