Circa: 1898
Manufacturer: New York Monthly Company
Original book page which appears to have photos, from "The Battle with Spain", published by New York Monthly Company, New York in 1898. Not a reproduction, but page from an antique issue of this book (we guarantee this), with an antique print on each side of the page; on one side it's a photo of the Spanish American War General Blanco & Arenas, with the other side having two photos of General Fitzhugh Lee and Captain Charles D. Sigsbee. Copy under the photo of General Blanco also refers to him as the Marquis of Pena-Plata.
The book showed pictures of naval vessels, navy ships, battleships, cruisers, gunboats, etc., which were part of the U.S. Navy at the time of the war with Spain (or the Spanish American war, the one with "Remember the Maine!") and people associated with that war. No copyright dates appear on the book pages. There is a paragraph describing each ship under it's picture.
Excellent condition black & white photographs, on full page measuring about 13 inches wide x 11 inches high. No tears, major bending or yellowing.

There is a slight page bend in the white edging at the middle of one side, other very minor page or corner edge wear and expected handling wear for a book page (the little within-the-page handling bumps or small creases that you see from a page being handled or turned within a book; we judge that this would not be noticeable framed). There is also the expected uneven edge where the page was taken from the book.
The book covers were in very bad shape, so we removed the good pages and are selling them separately. A terrific piece to add to a collection related to the Spanish American War, the 1898 War, or a collection relating in general to the U.S. Navy or US Navy Vessels, Ships, Battleships, Warships, etc.
