This paper is an example of very early, very scarce YELLOW JOURNALISM ILLUSTRATED STORY PAPER. Only 2 others available. This has a really great image of "The Duel Of Death". It must have made people gasp at the surreal image of the Grim Reaper. They has sports like baseball, boxing and murder, mayhem of the late 1800s. Printed in Boston by John Stetson.  

I  am not a grader so I make sure the scans are close and  as detailed as I can make them. We have many other we have or will be listing if you have any questions just e-mail me.

 This is one of 800  "Beadle's Dime Library, Nick Carter Library, Old Sleuth Library,  &"The Shadow Magazines" as well as several thousand dime novels we will be placing on EBAY and in our site store over this year. Any questions or special requests please email us. We always try to list any items that are requested as quickly if we can.

   This book is one of a large collection we are placing on our Ebay store of rarely available items and books.  The book is one of the many rarely seen items that we will be offering over the next few months from a collectors estate sale. Once these are gone how long before you will see them come up again. Once a collector buys them they go right back into a vault somewhere.

     We always take into consideration a customers history of buying from us when addressing "BEST OFFER" option. We will respond to you within the allotted time but if it has just been listed we will give it the full time period to allow others to make similar offers or purchase. We list many, many items that may be "One of a kind" or simply "One of a kind on the market". These items usually are placed in collections which are not seen again on the market until once again sold by collectors. If you collect, you realize that is a once in a lifetime occurrence for collectors.....
