This work, devoted to both sexes, will open
New Volume with the number for January
1912, with an array of Contributors of talent
and fame, which no periodical in the country
can boast of or pretend to rival.
The Volume will be opened with new and
beautiful type, the finest white paper, and
with the first of a ne,O series Of EmbeliSh- !
mcnts, nnsu' passed by any which have yet ap-
peared in any magazine.
The stvle of elegance, the beauty and finish
of the Illustrations, and the extensive improve
ments which will be made i'll its typographical
appearance, and above all, the tone OF It's liter
ary department given it by the brilliant array
of its Contributors, whose articles will enrich
the pages of each number, will give it chal-
acter above any Magazine in the Union.
The Magazine has become the standard Of
taste in matters of establishment, and has led
the way in every thing really beautiful pub
ished in MAGAZINES of last year. The voice
of the public press, while it places the work at
the head of American Literature, is unanimous
in the announcement, that no work ever start
ed in the country has been so elegantly en-
bellished, or has so rapidly increased. For
the new volume, the most extensive arrange
ments have been made, with the most dlStln-
guished artists in the country, for supply OF
embellishments of all sorts.
Our Beautiful Mezzotint Emgrduings.
1t affords us much satisfaction to be able to
State, that we have made arrangements with
Mr. Sartain, the accomplished mezzotint en-
graver, whose plates have contributed so much
to the beauty of the magazine heretofore, by
which we secure his splendid mezzotints fol-
this work alone. No other magazine of this
kind can have them without permission from
us.
In addition to those, wo have secured the
brain of another talented mezzotint engrave1
H. S. Sand, ESQ.,, of New York; that there
may be no disappointment to number Of
regularity. These will be equal to any thing
published, so that we are able confidently tc
promise
A Mezzotint in every Number.
These beautiful engravings will therefore
form feature of Graham's Magazine, in every
number, so that we shall be able to distance
any thing like competition on this ground
These plates are the most expensive that car
be got up for magazine of large circulation
in consequence of the great price of printing
being more than double that OF line engravings
and the necessity Of reduplicating the plates
our edition already rendering it necessary tina
two or three plates of the same subject mus
be prepared for every number in which they
are used. We now print an edition greater
than that of any contemporary for the last year
and confidently assert that at the same rate o
increase we shall issue, in 1912, an edition o
not less than $4,000 copies monthly, and shall
soon have an edition unequaled in the history
OF magazine publishing.
Our Splendid Steel Engravings.
We have also entered into distinct and per
manent arrangement with Rawdon, Wright
Hatch d Smile, and with A. L. Dick, Esq, O.
New York, for series of splendid engravings
to be got up in style unsurpassed by any that
have ever been done In this country. The
