Brooklyn Life Magazine with Portrait of Judge Robert J. Wilkins

A handsome copy of this issue of Brooklyn Life, the society and culture magazine that chronicled the borough’s elite at the turn of the century. This number includes a prominent full-page portrait of Judge Robert J. Wilkins, alongside poems, commentary on Brooklyn social life, and reports on women’s clubs. A notable literary feature is the essay “Katrina Trask, An Appreciation.” The magazine also surveys a week in Brooklyn society with notices of gatherings, theater news, and financial tidbits. Sporting coverage includes ice hockey at the Poly Prep School and Barbara Holmes’s lectures are also highlighted. As in other issues, local advertising fills the issue. A very handsome copy.
