The second page has a few typewritten names, together with dozens added in pencil, clearly at different times. From 1919 the London Mercury's original editor J. C. Squire promoted the traditional verse of the Georgian Poets and their prose counterparts; on taking over in October 1934 Scott-James embraced the more fashionable modernist writing, and that change is reflected in the present list. The names on it include 'Miss Scott-James' (clearly a relation), Isaiah Berlin, Olaf Stapleton, Sir Edward Grigg, Leonard Woolf, William Plomer, Rose Macaulay, Alec Waugh, Liddell Hart, C. E. M. Joad, Sean O'Faolain, Edwin Muir, James Hanley, Sir Archibald Hurd. In a few cases the reviewer's specialities are given (for example 'W. A. Ismay (E. Indies mod politics classics)' and 'F. A Clement (archaeology biology . . . short notes)'). In one case an address is given: 'Richard David (Shakespeare etc) 10 Queen St, Cambs'. The London Mercury ceased publication in April 1939.
