Title: Pen and Pencil; A Journal of Light & Entertaining, Literature for Hours of Recreation
Category: Literary, Miscellany
Volume: 1
Issue: 1
Date: 1867
Published in: New York, NY
A well-illustrated weekly, mostly containing serialized adventure fiction, in which ‘each and every article appearing will be historical or founded on truth, each of itself teaching something good – its object being to amuse and elevate the mind, but no politics or religion or general ‘isms’ of the day will be discussed’. Quite rare in wrappers.
