Content
 The "Geïllustreerde Courant" was a kind of family publication full of news and information and with a noticeable interest in royal houses. It was not very thick: between eight and ten pages but with many illustrations in the form of wood engravings. It was printed on the acid paper made from wood pulp on which so much 19th-century material was printed. Because of this the pages have become very fragile and they tear at the least careless handling.
