Original Wraps. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Jacket, as Issued. Henry Moore (Front Cover) (illustratore). First Edition. Volume 3. No.12 November-December 1947. First impression of the true first edition of the twelfth issue in the original series of this historic poetry magazine edited by Tambimuttu. Front cover colour illustration of the Lyre-bird by Henry Moore. ***Very good in the original dark blue printed and monochrome illustrated stapled covers. The covers are quite clean - just slightly marked and creased, commensurate with age and handling, but please note that there is a bump to the bottom outer corner which affects all pages (please see scans). The staples are rusted, as is often the case with these magazines. Internally also very good with no inscriptions. Pages clean with hardly any of the usual foxing. No tears. ***40 pages (plus adverts on the inside covers). 248mm x 185mm. ***Contents: Keith Douglas: Words, Song, The Knife, Leukothea; Kathleen Raine: Seen in a Glass; George Barker: To W. S. Graham; Pablo Neruda: Celery, Barcarolle; Iain Fletcher: Twin Poems on the Single Theme (T.T), Metro-Delphic Inc.; Norman Nicholson: Song at Night; Ronald Bottrall: Proserpine at Enna, Perambulation; Rainer Maria Rilke: The Sixth Elegy, The Seventh Elegy, The Eighth Elegy, the Ninth Elegy, The Tenth Elegy; Bernard Spencer: Regent's Park Terrace; Eithne Willkins: Portrait, Eurydike; Philip O'Connor: A Disturbed Environment. ***Points of View: Three Exiles by Hugh Gordon Porteus, Going West by Nicholas Moore; A Polarity by John Heath-Stubbs; Tout Aux Tavernes et Aux Filles by Richard March. ***Vol. 3. No. 12 - the twelfth issue of the original first series of this renowned poetry magazine, edited by Tambimuttu, published in the early post-war period. Of interest to collectors of poetry first editions, and the publications of Poetry London. ***Starting with this edition, due to post-war economic conditions, the publication was reduced back down to 40 pages, from the expanded format of 64 and 72 pages that issues 7 to 11 had enjoyed. ***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.
