Pearson's Magazine July 1897 H G Wells, The War Of The Worlds, single issue,rare

Description: Pearson's Magazine, July 1897. Number 19. Volume 4. Single monthly softcover issue in original colour covers. Original price sixpence. This issue includes the forth instalment of The War of the Worlds (Chapters V-VIII). By H G Wells and illustrated by Warwick Goble. As with the first three instalments, Pearson's Magazine advertised the story in red text at the top of the cover. (See image: the text reads INVASION OF THE EARTH BY MEN FROM MARS. See H. G. WELLS New Serial, in this Number. )a rare practice for the magazine before this point. The serialisation ran from April to December 1897. These nine issues contain the complete novel. Single monthly issues of The War Of The Worlds are practically non existent and I could find no other examples online. The condition is very good and all complete. Small amount of loss to spine ends and some wear to corners and edges. All adverts intact. binding good and pages bright and clear. A very rare piece of literature history and the first appearance of, what has become a cult following. The book was first published in 1898 and does not include the illustrations. A prized rarity for serious collectors. I am also selling the May issue including the first appearance of the Martian Tripods. Please feel free to contact me for addition pictures or more information.
