    Illustrated London News was the very first illustrated newspaper in the world,
    it was published for 161 years from 1842–2003

    It is thought to be the finest pictorial example and historic social record
    of British and world events upto the early 21st Century

    My collection is not quite the complete run of every ILN published but I have over 7000 of them
