Description

Here you have a wonderful bit of VINTAGE MEMORABILIA! Please...SEE THE SCANS! This is the ORIGINAL AUGUST 1874 issue of THE HERALD OF HEALTH devoted to the culture of the BODY AND MIND... Our Motto: A HIGHER TYPE OF MANHOOD--PHYSICAL, INTELLECTUAL, AND MORAL... This was published monthly by WOOD & HOLBROOK of NEW YORK CITY.  You can see the contents on the cover. Most of the articles are short 2-3 page pieces. Among the features: INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES UON THE INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF CASES OF INSANITY AND SUICIDE... OPIUM EATING: CLERGYMAN'S SORE THROAT... HYDROPHOBIA... AN ESSAY ON PORK... and much more... There are also advertisements. This measures 9 1/2 inches X 6 1/8 inches and has 96 pages. The publication is in okay shape; it has fairly significant vintage edge and corner wear; NOTE THAT IN PRODUCTION SOME OF THE BACK PAGES DID NOT HAVE THEIR EDGES CUT, SO THESE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE EDGES SLICED... not mint of course, but fairly gently read and clean inside. This is also a scarce find! This is a great piece FOR THE COLLECTOR! Take it home with you! GOOD LUCK! Please Check Out My Ebay Store for more great memorabilia!!! I am happy to send this to any country. 1st class air postage will be charged… More excellent packaging and free 1st class shipping here in the United States! THANKS! 092015
