Description
New York: E. G. Arnold and Weldon Giniger, 1934. First Edition. Very good. Issue No. VI - Sept. Oct. Nov. 1934; 11 x 8 1/2; pp. [4], i, 1-64 - mimeographed text to rectos only; green wraps, printed and ruled in black; illustrated with frontis plate by Will Eisner; fading to margins and small nicks and cuts to edges of wraps; interior clean; in very good condition. An early issue of this obscure, short-lived, literary journal, it featured stories, poems, and miscellaneous works by both known and yet-undiscovered authors, including Sara H. Carleton, Olga Cabral, Fay Slobod, and others. Arguably, the best feature of the magazine was a very-early illustration by Will Eisner, titled: "The Man Who Loved a Horse," when he was just 17-years-old. William Erwin Eisner (1917 - 2005), one of the pioneers of American comic books and the first to coin the term "graphic novel," published his first cartoons and drawings in his high school paper The Clinton News and he also created stage designs for his school plays (he would never graduate from the said high school). After working a night shift as a copywriter and letterer at the New York American newspaper, he would publish his first professional comics - "Harry Karry" (1936), "Captain Scott Dalton" (1936), and "The Flame."
