~ Description ~
This is an early issue of McCall's Magazine during the Belle Epoque era when it was subtitled "The Queen of Fashion."

It was renamed "McCall's Magazine: The Queen of Fashion" by his widow in 1897 and expanded to include homemaking tips, stories, and articles on children's issues, travel. Eventually becoming "McCall's" for short, it was published monthly until 2000 at which time Rosie O'Donnell became the editorial director and renamed the magazine "Rosie, " which ended two years later.Notable: McCall's was the first magazine to print an entire novel in an issue, and also the first magazine to take a patriotic position at the start of World War II to encourage rationing and consumer thrift to which 150, 000 women responded with mailed pledges in three weeks.
