The October issue entitled, "Our Hitting Power" contains article on the Air Force by Francis V. Blake, as well as a reflection on the new Chinese ambassador to the United States, Dr. Hu Shih, by Marquis W. Childs. W.R. Castle contributes " A Monroe Doctrine for Japan." Albert Jay Nock writes a political article about the Presidential campaign, entitled Epstean's Law," and Ray Lyman Wilbur an article entitled, " Statehood for Hawaii." Condition this issue: Very Good, with usual light wear to wraps, name to cover in old ink, and brief underlining for the dictionary exercise of the original owner, who appears to have been a 5th grader. The November, 1940 issue features a William Faulkner short story, "Gold is not Always, " published first here, and later forming part of his 1942 novel, " Go Down Moses." Gertrude Stein contributes an article entitled, " The Winner Loses," about France under German occupation. The 1940 Presidential election is debated in competing articles by John Hanes and James M. Landis regarding the two candidates, Wendell Willkie and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Condition this issue: ditto as above, also with reinforced tape at foot and head of spine. No underlining. Notable in the December, 1940 issue is a short story by the Irish-American author and theater director, Mary Manning entitled, " Dear Lord Bellevue," a story of hereditary bankruptcy ("My mother was dressed by Worth and I am dressed by Woolworth.") in which a down-at-heels Irish lord gives a tour of his abandoned manor to two young acquaintances. Gontran de Poncins writes about "The Seal Eskimos." Also, an advertorial undersigned by sixteen members of the Faculty of Harvard Law School entitled, "A Proposal for Action in the Far East," advocates for a naval embargo of Japan, sharing of naval bases with Britain, Denmark and others in the area, as well as possible strategic aid to China. Condition this issue: Good only, with cover of wrap three-quarters detached. A fascinating time capsule of the period. Book.

A lovely copy in the publisher's decorative red cloth, would be Fine cond. save for one small blemish, a small incision on the spine (as seen in photo). Very handsome copy of this remarkable volume print…ed on heavy coated paper, with hinges intact. St. Nicholas was a popular and much-heralded magazine written for (and by) children, and known to have been the first magazine to publish a number of famous authors, including Edna St. Vincent Millay, Stephen Vincent Benet, Eudora Welty, and F. Scott Fitzgerald (who had contributed a photograph). This volume contains the first published writing by E. B. White, a brief short story entitled "A Winter Walk," which he wrote at only 11 years old. It won the "Silver Badge," the magazine's second-highest honor. The story is a snapshot of a boy and his dog who venture out into a forest under fresh snow. It's a stunning accomplishment for an eleven-year-old, and of course this boy would grow up to write the all-time children's classic, "Charlotte's Web." This is an incredible, rare collector's item for anyone who loves or collects E. B. White. This volume also includes several incredible rare photogrpahs of early baseball players such as Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Nap Lajoie, etc., in wonderful passages about baseball strategy entitled "The Battle of Base-ball.".

Corners sharp, though there are very small abrasions to the bottom corners, and the spine is just half a shade darkened. Still a handsome copy of this fragile volume printe…d on heavy coated paper, with the hinges intact. A popular and much-heralded magazine written for and by children, St. Nicholas is known to have been the first magazine to publish a number of famous authors, including Edna St. Vincent Millay, Stephen Vincent Benet, Eudora Welty, Vita Sackville-West, and F. Scott Fitzgerald (who had contributed a photograph). This volume contains the first published writing by E. B. White, a brief short story entitled "A Winter Walk," which won the "Silver Badge," the magazine's second-highest honor. The story is a snapshot of a cabin-dweller and his dog, who venture out into a forest under fresh snow. It contains some real stunners for an eleven-year-old, though the fact is less surprising when one realizes this is the eleven-year-old who would grow up to write "Charlotte's Web." For example: "All the trees wore a new fur coat, pure white, and the pines were laden with pearl [.] Squirrels frisked among the branches, chattering because we trespassed on their property." A fantastic keepsake for anyone who loves E. B. White, especially those who admire his talent for humanizing the animal kingdom.
