The edges of the dustwrapper are rubbed and creased, and there is a 1.5 cm closed tear to the top edge of the front panel, and a couple of closed tears and associated creasing to the top edge of the back panel. Head and tail of spine of dustwrapper also slightly creased and rubbed. Back panel of dustwrapper slightly discoloured and rubbed (being a white background). Illustrated front panel of dustwrapper clean and bright. ***258mm x 192mm. x prelim-pages plus 264 pages. ***Contents: Poems, Illustrations, Prose, Art, Radio, Music, Points of View, Correspondence.

Eliot's "Rhapsody on a Windy Night" by Gerald Wilde, and eight full-page drawings for "The Ancient Mariner" by Mervyn Peake. Also a full-page reproduction of a handwritten poem: "The Antiquary, 1944" by Augustus John. ***'There has been no other periodical since the Great War that has gathered so many poets into its pages.' - Francis Scarfe in 'Auden & After' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***First impression of the true first edition, published during the Second World War in February 1945, although the book states December 1944. Complete in its original thin wartime colour illustrated dustwrapper - the three full-page colour lithographs (one double-page) by Gerald Wilde are clean and bright and in very fine condition, and with the eight-pages of drawings by Mervyn Peake, and a full-page handwritten poem by Augustus John. Extremely scarce to find complete in the original dustwrapper. Of interest to collectors of poetry first editions, the publications of Poetry London, collectors of the illustrations of Mervyn Peake, and of the artwork of Gerald Wilde. ***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.
