PERIODICAL ACCENT

Contributors include Wallace Stevens, Selden Rodman, James Farrell, R.P. Blackmur, Horace Gregory, Kay Boyle, Richard Wright, Delmore Schwartz, Kenneth Burke and E.E. Cummings. The collection we are offering, totaling 9 issue, is as follows: Vol. 1, no. 1, autumn 1940; Vol. 2, no.'s 1 and 2, autumn/winter 1941; Vol. 3 [sic], no. 1, 2, 3 autumn/winter/spring 1942; Vol. 3, no. 4, summer 1943; Vol. 4, no. 1, 2, autumn 1943/winter 1944. 8vo., printed paper wraps. Condition is very good, with only very light soiling at the wraps and slight rubbing at the spines and extremities. 2
