In the top portion of the sheet, slogans in large block letters proclaim that the newspaper is \u201cStrong, Clean, Enterprising\u201d and has \u201cThe Largest Circulation Among the Best People.” The ad copy continues, \u201cRejoicing with its readers in the better times that reign, The Tribune<\/strong> finds itself enjoying its own fair share of the prevalent prosperity, and prepared to make all its editions complete, entertaining and valuable. The first aim of The Tribune<\/strong> is to be The Best and Foremost Family Newspaper of America,\u201d further claiming to be \u201cThe Leading American Newspaper\u201d even outside of New York, where, \u201cIt is acknowledged to be the Great Favorite Of The Farmer and His Family.\u201d<\/p>\n

The New York Tribune<\/strong> was founded by Horace Greeley in 1841and continued as a major newspaper until 1922, when it merged with the rival paper the New York<\/strong> Herald.<\/strong> During the 19th Century, weekly editions of the Tribune <\/strong>were widely read around the country. Built in 1875, the Tribune Building stood at 154 Nassau Street in New York City\u2019s financial district, designed by Richard Morris Hunt. The building appears in the engraving as it looked before an additional 9-story addition was added to the top in 1905, surrounding the tower. It was demolished in 1966 to make way for the campus of Pace University.<\/p>\n

The engraver\u2019s name is given as R. Shugg, likely Richard Shugg, a New York City wood engraver who was listed in the city business directory as co-proprietor of McLees & Shugg from 1858 to 1860.<\/p>\n
