Cooperatively published and edited revolutionary socialist magazine The Masses (1911-1917) with cover illustration by Hungarian-American Communist artist, Hugo Gellert (1892-1985). This is one of the last issues of the magazine, which was facing irremediable publishing challenges following the passage of the Espionage Act (15 June 1917) which stifled The Masses as being eligible for shipment within the U.S. because the magazine was being charged with printing treasonable material. Specifically the explicit criticism of conscription around this time being charged with obstructing enlistment during World War I. This issue features several cartoons by Beardman Robinson and F.A. Busing satirizing the draft, depicting the inherent morbidity in repressing people's freedom through conscription. These illustrations along with editorials speaking towards pacifism, and against military-industrialist tendencies,were met with demoralizing repercussions from the courts that the staff readily lampooned when being tried. Good condition, chipping stapled sections of spine with 3 inch closed tear to lower third, light soiling to joints of wraps with edges worn and lightly chipped, 4 inch tear to lower half of page 15/16, toning to wraps and text block, flattened 3 inch vertical crease to lower half of first 14 pages, else a strong and certainly readable copy as it's been handled with occasional light pencil markings to articles and margins. Saddle-stapled quarto (8-1/2 x 10-5/8 inches) in pictorial wraps, 50 pp.…

First Edition. Thirty-eight issues in original printed wrappers; occasional mild soil and wear, complete and generally Very Good. Octavo (22cm) through April 1914; changes format to small quarto (25cm) beginning with June, 1915. Weekly through April 12, 1913; changes to monthly beginning with May, 1913. Title change from "Weekly" to "Monthly," beginning May, 1913; from "Monthly" to "Critical" beginning June 1914. Together, thirty-eight issues as follows: Vol. I, no. 1 (Jan 4, 1913) - no.23 (December, 1913), complete. Vol. II, no. 1 (Jan 1914) - 4; 6-12; lacking issue for May, 1914. Vol. III, no. 1 (Jan 1915) - 4; lacking all issues after April, 1915. A nearly unbroken run of the first 38 issues of this scarce independent radical periodical, which continued publication as a monthly until June 1916, at which point it was absorbed into The Masses. The New Review's editorial board in fact had a great deal of overlap with that of The Masses, which had begun in 1911: key figures, including Floyd Dell, Max Eastman, Louis Fraina, Arturo Giovannitti and others shared editorial duties on both journals. Like The Masses, The New Review approached radicalism from a fairly ecumenical standpoint - alongside articles on doctrinaire Marxism there appear numerous contributions on anarchism, the I.W.W., and social democracy, reflecting the brief moment in the infancy of the American left when firm lines had not yet been drawn between qualitatively sympathetic but theoretically divergent ideologies. Whereas The Masses was primarily focused on contemporary art and culture, The New Review was principally oriented towards hard reportage, theoretical essays, and opinion pieces by leading leftist writers of the day. W.E.B. Du Bois, who appears on the masthead as a co-editor beginning in June, 1914, contributes three substantial articles to this run of issues: Jan 11, 1913 ("A Field for Socialists"); Feb 1, 1913 ("Socialism and the Negro Problem") and July, 1914 ("A Study in Black"). Other regular contributors include Mary White Ovington, J. William Lloyd, Anton Pannekoek, Mary Heaton Vorse, Robert Rives Lamont, Eugene V. Debs and many others. A key and somewhat scarce periodical, highly representative of the developmental phase of the organized American Left; uncommon, especially in cohesive runs; these copies very well preserved.
