Description
New York: Jewish Frontier Association, 1939. Paperback. Fair. Issues generally 31-32 pages (with cover generally included in pagination; the June issue dedicated to Albert Einstein contains 71 pages and includes an analysis of a British White Paper on Palestine by David Ben Gurion. 31 cm. All issues printed on high acid paper that is not a lot better than newsprint so all issues have some browning and at least a little chipping in margins. Covers are usually split and chipped along the fold; the back covers for the March and July issues are missing. A couple issues also have minor insect damage along fore-edge. Small oval Yale University Library stamp at bottom of the front cover on almost all issues. These issues are fragile and will require careful handling to preserve them. Scarce pro-Zionist labor/left periodical issued monthly (11 times a year) at this time. Shlomo Katz listed as Managing Editor with Hayim Greenberg and Hayim Fineman listed as editors. Much on Palestine, labor issues, Nazi Germany, World War II, British White Paper Betrayal, etc. The March issue has a symposium at pages 9-20 titled "Jews in a World of Violence" between Mahatma Gandhi, Norman Angell and Hayim Greenberg in which Gandhi sympathisized generally with Jews but rejected calls for a National Homeland for the Jews, declaring that Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense the England belongs to the English and France to the French. Gandhi argued that Jews should cling to the moral high ground and rely on the power of non-violence even if it resulted in their slaughter. Angell and Greenberg disagreed, disparaging Arab claims to Palestine and supporting Zionism.

It also provides an evaluation of our work and serves as a focus of discussion and a source of ideas for intelligent, creative, and resourceful bookmaking. Member presses submitted 293 books, 335 jackets and covers, and 6 journals for consideration in the show. The book jurors chose 51 books in the following catagories: 14 scholarly typographic, 9 scholarly illustrated, 10 trade typographic, 10 trade illustrated, 5 poetry and literature, 3 reference, and 2 journals. The jacket and cover jurors chose 32 selections for recognition. The 2007 show includes books published in 2006 and jackets and covers of books published in 2006. Books may have been manufactured anywhere in the world, but imports and copublications with a foreign publisher are not eligible."
