24 pages, C. E. Foxwell, editor. The resounding theme of this issue is based primarily on that of
Mr. Thomas Gliddon, who was the original editor of The Casket and had died in 1890.
I did a quick search and actually found information on Mr. Gliddon, he was a Grand Master Mason in Rchester, N.Y. and he wrote and published
a supplimentary titled, "History of the Secret Societies in Rochester."
This very old and very rare funeral magazine is in very nice condition.
The last 5 pages have dog-earred folds, and since magazine was stapled, there are small and minor tearing in the gutter area. All pages are intact and surprisingly, the pages are still white and supple, not yellowed and brittle considering its age. I have many other vintage funeral magazines for sale.
