The Illustrated London News was the world's first illustrated weekly newspaper. The first issue 16 pages with 32 woodcuts appeared on Saturday 14 May 1842 marking a revolution in journalism and news reporting.

Five issues later it was time for jubilation: "Probably in the whole annals of Newspaper History the triumphant success of 'The Illustrated London News' is without a parallel; it has received from the public a welcome warmer and wider than we could anticipated even in the buoyant enthusiasm of our first ambition. From the length and breadth of the Empire we have received the most flattering testimonials." The present volume contains all first 34 issues and a Supplement. Each issue is stamped at bottom with the legendary red Tax Stamp. Also present is Issue no. 15 a rare collectible in itself which appeared with the erroneous header "No. 10 July 16" instead of "No. 15 August 20". It is neatly corrected here by contemporary hand.

18948Manchester and London. Between 1890 and 1920. A useful background guide is Geoffrey Russell Searle's 'Country before Party: Coalition and the Idea of "National Government' in Modern Britain 1885-1987' London 1995. As the manuscripts in this collection indicate Cuming Walters cherished the idea of a national party from the 1890s and he was able to re-use material from that period on the formation of the National Party in 1920 not to be confused with the party of the same name a pamphlet relating to which is present dating from 1917. The collection is in fair condition with most items lightly-aged and worn but with one or two with slight loss and damage. ONE: Corrected Autograph Manuscript Draft of unpublished paper by J. Cuming Walters: 'A National Party'. Dated 'October 1890'. 35pp. 12mo. Heavily revised. TWO: Part of later corrected Autograph Manuscript Draft of Item One by J. Cuming Walters. Conclusion of lecture. Dated at end 'October 1890'. On 28 pieces of paper mostly 12mo with the main section paginated 16-41. THREE: Corrected Autograph Manuscript of unpublished lecture by J. Cuming Walters: 'The Need of a National Party A Lecture delivered at the Ladywood Conservative Club October 8th. 1890 by J. Cuming Walters'. 2 14pp. 12mo. Heavily revised with numerous deletions. Introductory 'Note' by 'J. C. W.': 'Very hastily written but not hastily conceived this Lecture can only claim attention for any new ideas it may contain & not for the manner in which they are expressed. I have tried to speak plainly and without fear; & I only ask in return that the plain issues should be considered & criticised. To the members of the Ladywood Conservative Club for whom it was written & who received it so cordially this Lecture is dedicated.' FOUR: Galley proofs of both parts of article 'Political Ideals. Why not a National Party By an Ex-M.P.' 1911. Initialled at head of first part by Cuming Walters with autograph note: 'Uncorrected Proof'. FIVE: Newspaper cutting of 'Political Ideals. Why not a National Party By an Ex-M.P.' Manchester City News 11 February 1911. SIX: Five pages of manuscript start of article 'Political Ideals Why not a National Party By an Ex-M.P.' In Cuming Walters' hand and with instructions by him to printers. With a three miscellaneous autograph leaves letterhead of the Manchester Evening Chronicle card addressed to Cuming Walters. SEVEN: Pamphlet: 'The National Party to promote Reform Union and Defence. A Statement of Policy.' Published by The Provisional Committee of The National Party at 22 King Street St. James' London S.W.1. 1917 15pp. 8vo. Stapled. With stamp on cover of the 'Secretary – National Party 23 Kilvert's Buildings Withy Grove Manchester.' List at front of 27 'Members of both Houses of Parliament and other public men' who issued the 'original Manifesto' from 'Colonel Lord Ampthill G.C.S.I. G.C.I.E.' to 'Lt.-Col. Lord Stafford D.S.O.' Headings include 'Failure of the old Party System' and 'Aims of the National Party'.

New Centre Party Launched for Reconstruction Era. Premier as Leader. Great Lobby Excitement: Coalition Funds Amalgamated.'; and editorial titled 'New Party and the New Problems'. The editorial begins: 'As was generally anticipated the dinner to Mr. Winston Churchill last night possessed great political significance. Mr. Churchill who had just returned from a long conference with the Prime Minister delivered a carefully prepared speech in which he dilated on the necessity of forming a permanent Centre Party out of the elements of the present Coalition. Sir George Younger for the Unionists and Captain Guest for the Coalition Liberals associated themselves with the views expressed by Mr. Churchill.'

1710710 Hohenzollern Strasse W. Berlin Prussia . 16 July 1874. 6pp. 12mo. Bifolium and single leaf. On aged and worn paper with 4 cm closed tear to all three leaves. A highly interesting letter illuminating Victorian Fleet Street and City of London practices. The author's signature is frustratingly illegible but may well be that of sports journalist Charles William Alcock 1842-1907. The recipient is possibly James Clarke d.1888 editor of The Christian World. The author opens the letter with the 'conclusions' he has arrived at regarding the 'various schemes' which he 'maturely reflected upon' in a discussion with Clarke the previous week. The 'most advisable' option would be to start 'the heavy paper' but this can only be done 'if the whole of the money can be got together in time to enable us to begin October 1st or Novbr. 1st.' On the other hand if 'capitalists should be less eager to join than we wish there will remain the alternative of either establishing a weekly paper on Baron Reuter's plan or of trying the experiment of a small daily paper as proposed by myself at the last meeting.' He discusses the merits of the weekly paper with which 'as we may expect to fill it with news not previously published we shall soon command attention and influence'. He prefers the option of 'the small daily paper' which would be 'only as large or a little larger than The Echo and coming out four or five times a day contain nothing but the most important intelligence in a condensed yet perfectly complete and appreciable form. In addition to Reuter's telegrams we should have daily a considerable amount of private & exclusive intelligence on political & commercial topics.' He continues to describe the advantages of the 'small daily paper' which should appeal to 'the merchant as well as the statesman' and would 'appear all the more attractive for our brevity and telling style. A compact & readable summary of all that is really remarkable in Parliament and in fact anywhere else shd. of course be included in the programme.' He continues: 'Relying partly on the Baron's i.e. Reuter's promised contributions and partly on what private & exclusive intelligence I have at my disposal I will engage to start such a paper with a capital of £50000.' He considers that 'the exclusive nature of a considerable portion of the contents and the novel style of the whole thing will justify us in making it a penny paper even though imitating the style of the halfpenny Echo'. If five 'Capitalists' could be found at £10000 each 'active preparations might be set on foot at once'. One has already been found 'Mr. Duddell of 7 Poultry and Queen's Park Brighton' i.e. George Duddell 1821-1887 who had made a fortune as a merchant and opium monopolist in Hong Kong. The author's friend 'Mr. Davies i.e. Henry Daniel Davies 110 Cannon Street and Spring Grove House Isleworth Middlesex' might 'likewise swell our funds' and the author is 'in hopes of getting something' in Berlin. He concludes in thanking Clarke for his support. 'If the paper is destined to become a reality it cannot but gain credit by vindicating the objects in promoting which you have justly acquired so great and universal a reputation.' For background information see Brake and Demoor eds 'Dictionary of Nineteenth-century Journalism in Great Britain and Ireland' 2009. 10 Hohenzollern Strasse W., Berlin [ Prussia ]. 16 July 1874. unknown

This intriguing kawaraban reports on the shipwreck of a Chinese trading ship in December 1800 Kansei 12 at Yamana County in present-day Shizuoka Prefecture.
