Item description from seller

23x15 cm. One monthly issue of the Universal Magazine with the original front wrapper. Rear wrapper missing. Edges untrimmed. 113-[168] pp., 3 full-page plates. Among these plates is the first British appearance of Charles Nicolas Cochin's famous portrait of Benjamin Franklin. Sellers: "This was probably the first likeness of Franklin taken after his arrival in France. It was certainly by far the most popular. The Canadian fur cap is worn in sturdy independence of fashionable usage, and the Doctor's mouth, and the glance through his spectacles, carry out the idea." (Catalogue of the Society's Exhibition of Portraits of Benjamin Franklin, 373) The text also contains printings of three letters on taxation by Franklin.
