THE BOYS' OWN MAGAZINE

The art of this once popular magazine may be dismissed very briefly. J. G. Thomson made a lot of designs to Silas the Conjuror and other serials. R. Dudley, a conscientious draughtsman whose speciality was mediæval subjects, illustrated its historical romances with spirit and no little knowledge of archæological details. A. W. Bayes, J. A. Pasquier, and others adorned its pages; but from 1863 to its death it contains nothing interesting except to a very rabid collector.
