28 issues, complete- Vol 1, No. 1, September 1927- Vol. VII, No. 4, July/ September 1934. Each issue approx 9 x 6" and vary in length, from 75pp.- 175pp. plus ads. Included is a copy of THE HOUND AND THE HORN LETTERS, edited by Mitzi Berger Hamovitch and a paperbound copy of Leonard Greenbaum's Phd. dissertation, THE HOUND & HORN: Episodes in American Literary History, 1927-1932 (which was later published under the same title). Also there is a letter from A. Hyatt Mayor to Greenbaum in 1963, which is both critical and clarifying regarding Greenbaum’s thesis. Contributors included: E.E. Cummings, Wallace Stephens, John Dos Pasos, William Carlos Williams, Louis Zukofsky and many others. Issues from 1927-29 have a Rockwell Kent design on cover; 1930-31, covers were designed by W.A. Dwiggins, incorporating a Kent masthead. In 1932 the magazine got a bold new face with a modern art deco design by an unknown designer, returning to a more plain cover for the last issues in 1933-34. One of the 1932 issues has a torn corner, otherwise all issues are in about very good condition, with some fading and light wear to spines, clean nice interiors. The Hound & Horn was a literary quarterly founded by Harvard students Lincoln Kirstein and Varian Fry in 1927. Modeled on T. S. Eliot's The Criterion, it was intended to focus on student life at Harvard and work submitted by its students and alumni. The publication later broadened in scope to include modern writers. The title of the magazine was taken from Ezra Pound's poem "The White Stag": "Tis the white stag, Fame, we're a hunting, bid the world's hounds come to horn." R. P. Blackmur served as the magazine's first managing editor from 1928 to 1930, when the magazine moved its headquarters to New York. Hound & Horn ceased publication in 1934.…
