Vol.2, No.8 - the eighth issue in the original series of the historic Poetry magazine, designed and edited by Tambimuttu, with the Henry Moore designed colour cover illustration of The Lyre Bird. This is an exceptional copy in virtually fine condition - a very rare wartime survivor. ***Near fine in the original colour illustrated stapled card covers. The covers are exceptionally clean, even the white back cover. Light creasing to the bottom corner tips of the last few pages. Slight splitting to the paper at the top of the spine. Staples rusted as usual. Internally also near fine - pages clean with hardly any of the usual foxing. A few marks and light creases - mainly production creasing as very thin paper was used (wartime paper restrictions were in force). No tears. The centre-spread of illustrations is printed on higher quality cartridge paper. Spine tight. ***64 pages (plus adverts on inside of front cover, and to make the maximum use of the covers, continuation of text on both sides of the back cover. 248mm x 185mm. ***Contents: Kenneth Allott: The Memory of Yeats; Audrey Beecham: Poem; Laurence Clark: To the Muse, Memo, First Fortnight of War; Stephen Coates: Poem; G.

No. 8 - the eighth issue of the original first series of this renowned poetry magazine, edited by Tambimuttu, published during the Second World War. Of interest to collectors of poetry first editions, and the publications of Poetry London. ***The wartime issues of Poetry (London) magazine are now quite scarce, and copies in such nice collectable condition are seldom seen. Issue No. 8 was the second of the series to have a full colour cover, and be expanded from 36 to 64 pages, which was quite a challenge considering it was published under wartime restrictions. A superb example of this magazine. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
