Harper's Weekly and Harper's Magazine
The Online Books Page and the Internet Archive have free access to the full issues of Harper's Weekly (1858-1909) and Harper's Magazine (1850-1922) to view and to download.
Harper's Weekly
"Harper's Weekly began publication in 1857 as "a journal of civilization", and contained notable coverage of the US Civil War and New York's Tammany Hall. The first incarnation ceased publication in 1916, and was absorbed by The Independent. Brief revivals were made in the 1920s and 1970s. In 2000, an electronic "Harper's Weekly Review", a weekly news roundup with links to material on the Harper's website, began. That form of the weekly continues to this day as a blog." -The Online Books Page
Harper's Magazine
"Harper's Magazine began publication as Harper's New Monthly Magazine with the June 1850 issue. It changed its name to Harper's Monthly Magazine for the Christmas 1900 issue, and to Harper's Magazine for the March 1913 issue." -The Online Books Page
