Images from the collected issues of the magazine Cassell’S Family magazine for the year 1889.

Between 1874 and 1896, including for the year represented here, Wikipedia claims that the magazine was edited by the H. G. Bonavia Hunt (1847 – 1917), but the Wikipedia page for that person does not mention it, and it seems unlikely.

The magazine was published by Cassell & Co., in Britain, the USA and elsewhere, and is out of copyright.
