Throughout the 1830s, an American edition was very popular in the United States, only to dwindle into extinction during the following decade. The paper did not cover the current news of the day, and carried no advertising. Instead, the Penny Magazine provided excellent essays on a wide array of subjects, such as architecture, science, geography and natural history. The paper was compact in size and was usually illustrated with several fine woodcut engravings. 80 [gsp10196] _gsrx_vers_1678 (GS 9.8.2 (1678))
