Reliure de l'époque. Chaque numéro contient bien ses quatre pages, quelques légères déchirures marginales sans atteinte au texte, ainsi que des pliures. Contributions d'Anatole France ("La Messe des ombres"), Charles Baudelaire (publication posthume de "La mort des pauvres", "La Corde", "Ciel brouillé", "Chanson d'après-midi"), Georges Courteline, Jules Renard ("Poil de Carotte"), Marcel Prévost ("L'Abbé Pantalon", "Torchonnette", "Jeunes époux"), Edmond et Jules de Goncourt ("Le Passeur de Maguelone", "Le Père Thibaut"), Aristide Bruant (Fins de siècle", "Souper du Mac", "Coquette", "Crâneuse"), Alphonse Allais ("Bébert"), Emile Zola ("Le Jeûne", "Un hommage éloquent"), Jean Richepin ("L'oublieux"), Paul Verlaine ("Colombine", "Les indolents", "Pantomime"), J.-H. Rosny ("La Sauveuse", "L'immolation", "Le Funéraliste"), Tristan Corbière ("Sainte Anne"), Gyp, Rachilde ("Volupté"), Paul Léautaud ("Elégie"), Willy ("Une passade"), Maurice Leblanc ("L'Oeuvre de Mort"), Jehan Rictus ("Les soliloques du pauvre") ; dessins de Sandy-Hook, Abel, Steinlen, Léandre, Carl Hap, Japhet, Gottlob, Prejelan entre autres.

Gil Blas est un ancien hebdomadaire de presse écrite français, fondé par Auguste Dumont, qui a paru du 19 novembre 1879 au 4 août 1914, puis très épisodiquement du 20 janvier 1921 à mars 1940. Pendant une période, à partir du 17 novembre 1909, il fut dirigé par Henri de Noussanne et Pierre de Maroussein. Le Gil Blas se voulut d'abord littéraire. De grandes plumes s'y exprimèrent dans des chroniques qui connurent un vif succès : Guy de Maupassant (ou Maufrigneuse) dont la collaboration fut la plus longue (1881-1888), Paul Arène, Émile Bergerat, Clovis Hugues, René Maizeroy, Jean Richepin, etc. Tout aussi importants étaient les feuilletons, signés par Émile Zola, Hector Malot, Théodore de Banville, et Octave Mirbeau notamment. De son côté, Maupassant y publia « Une vie » (février-avril 1883), « Bel Ami » (avril-mai 1885), « Mont-Oriol » (décembre 1886-jévrier 1887), etc. Outre ces chroniques et ces feuilletons, Zola défendit certaines de ses uvres dans le journal, par le biais des « Lettres au Directeur » (sur « le Rêve », 8 novembre 1888 ; sur « la Bête humaine », 13 novembre 1889).
