Month title page

  month title page
There is a problem with this volume as seen in Carlisle Library. There are no monthly title pages, but when the page numbers are inspected you find that pp.1-2 which, would have been the month title page and reverse, are missing. And the corresponding page numbers for each month are also missing. Have they been taken off by the binder? perhaps because they were the month cover pages, of stiffer paper. Whatever the reason, it means that today's reader has no month contents.
The problem exists in succeeding volumes.

The following exhortation was noticed in an issue in 1863:-

(Correspondents are requested to append their Address, not, unless agreeable, for publication, but in order that a copy of the GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE containing their Communications may be forwarded to them.)
