EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print captures the exterior of the publishing office of The Illustrated London News, located at 198 Strand on the corner with Milford Lane in London. Dating back to 1842, this iconic weekly news magazine was a staple in British households, publishing every Saturday for sixpence and selling an impressive 26,000 copies.
The image showcases a bustling scene outside the offices, with people coming and going as they eagerly awaited the latest edition of this popular publication. The grand building stands tall against the backdrop of 19th-century London, reflecting the importance and influence that The Illustrated London News held within society during that time.
As one of the leading newspapers of its era, The Illustrated London News provided readers with a broad range of stories and images from around the world. From politics to culture to current events, it was a trusted source of information for many Britons.
This print serves as a reminder of not only the rich history of journalism but also as a testament to how far media has come since those early days. It is a snapshot frozen in time, capturing a moment when newspapers were king and printed news was eagerly consumed by all who passed by.
