1895

"Each issue on front and back is in color, usually three-colors over black line cuts. June 2, 1895 Half-tones are used. December 1, 1895 appears to be a three-color half-tone of art. Three-color half-tones were used Dec. 1, 1895, to June 7, 1896, then illustrations went back to half-tones.--Hanson collection catalogue, p. 123
