The inaugural issue of Harriet Monroe’s Chicago magazine, Poetry, A Magazine of Verse, which would go on to house the likes of H. D., T. S. Eliot, W. C. Williams, Marianne Moore, Robert Frost and Wallace Stevens. This first issue also sees two contributions from EP, who was soon to be instated as the magazine’s Foreign Correspondent, providing verse and verse-news from Europe, making this issue Gallup C52 thus. A near fine copy, a little stiff with some wear to the bottom edge of the front cover, and a light stain to the back cover.
