Peterson’s Magazine – 1867 Illustrated Annual Volume | Engravings, Fashion Plates, Needlework Patterns & Sheet Music

A richly illustrated 1867 bound annual of Peterson’s Magazine, one of America’s most influential 19th-century women’s periodicals. This handsome volume brings together all twelve monthly issues from the year, offering a vivid look at Victorian domestic life, fashion, literature, and the decorative arts.

Inside are full-page steel engravings, charming fashion plates, needlework and embroidery patterns, sheet music, and serialized stories—an invaluable snapshot of trends, artistic styles, and cultural ideals of the post–Civil War era. The engravings (“The Opera-Box,” “The Lullaby,” and others) remain crisp and beautifully printed, and the volume includes an abundance of craft designs for collars, handkerchiefs, monograms, and household linens.

Bound in black cloth with leather corners and spine, this 1867 annual is both a collectible historical artifact and a delightful browsing volume for anyone who appreciates Victorian illustration, fashion history, or women’s periodicals.
