Description
• Publication: Harper’s Weekly • Date: March 30, 1861 • Subject: Vassar Female College (now Vassar College), Poughkeepsie, NY • Illustrations: • Top: Portrait of Matthew Vassar (the college’s founder). • Middle: Architectural rendering of the original Vassar College building. • Bottom: Likely the ceremonial signing/laying of the cornerstone or related dedication event. This issue predates the opening of Vassar (which officially opened in 1865), so it was an early promotional or commemorative article when the idea of a major college for women was groundbreaking. Harper’s Weekly was one of the most influential illustrated newspapers of the 19th century, and issues covering educational milestones, the Civil War, or famous institutions tend to be collectible.
