Gleason's Pictorial Collection — 1852-1854 Mid-Victorian America
A collection of antique wood engravings from the 1852-1854 Gleason's Pictorial Drawing-Room Companion.

It provides an excellent historical record of people, places, and events important to mid-Victorian America.
This collection is worth taking time to peruse as it includes some extremely rare interesting pieces that would make for exceptional conversation pieces, or centerpieces in a collage wall. Take a peek at items like Ben Franklin's Art of Making Money Plenty, The Lord's Prayer, and the set of National Traditional Costumes.
