Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. This is a nicely preserved issue of the March 1903 "Cosmopolitan Illustrated Monthly Magazine" . There is a lot to digest in this old periodical. The word beauty must have been making the rounds in the editorial office, for there are Two articles addressing said word : "Beauty in the Modern Chorus", and "Beauty and the Woman of Fifty". Both are illustrated with photographs of lovely women. On a more serious front, apiece on "The Police Systems of Europe" by Avery D. Andrews (who had been Police Commissioner of New York). Surprising to see the bicycle usage in Europe for officers of the law; the article is illustrated with photographs. "Mankind in the Making", a serialized work by H. G. Wells, is continued. A feature on European artist Franz Von Lembach should be interesting to those who are aware of him. There is plenty of fiction, and a smattering of poetry, and a great deal of period advertising, covering just about anything you could imagine, including automobiles, cameras, typewriters, fashion, foods, medical curiosities, and more.
