Here are just some of the reasons you may want to consider collecting historical magazine articles -
* Unique perspective. Especially during the Civil War, many articles were reported and written as they were taking place. As a result, the info may not be 100% accurate, but they give a great flavor for what was happening at the time.
* Awesome pictures. Harper's Monthly, Scribner's, Harper's Weekly all offer awesome woodcut illustrations of events and characters. Unless you know where to look for them, most people would never find them. Around the turn of the century Munsey's Magazine was one of the great periodicals offering 100's of illustrations of kings, queens, soldiers, president, expositions, and other events of the day.
* Family history. A lot of times we are able to hook people up with articles written directly about their famous, and not so famous relatives. Other times the articles fill in information on how distant relatives lived, or the events they participated in - battles, coal mining, religious movements. You name it, and someone in the past wrote about it.
* Teaching Aids. It's one thing to talk about Johnny Appleseed to your third grade class. How about if you enhance the experience by reading an 1870's Harper's article on Johnny written during his lifetime, illustrated with woodcuts of the man.
* Historical Research. Any event you can think of was written about in many of the graphic magazines from the 1800's. They offer a great sampling of perspectives for researchers, writers, and publishers. The pictures also bring life to many drab historical characters.
