Description
The stylized figure of a yeoman warder holding the pole of his partisan is seen from behind, standing left of a block of black lettering on white background, which takes up about a third of the picture and reads as follows:
Harper’s is the largest and most popular magazine yet owing to its enormous sale and in spite of the great expense of production, the price is still one shilling.
The caption reads in the original French: Affiche anglaise pour la revue Harper’s Magazine.
