Four volumes, including two issues of The London Magazine with contributions from Stuart, and two volumes of Innes's works published internationally.Present here are:The London Magazine, January 1956 volume 3 number 1, and November 1957 volume 4 number 11. The former issue includes J.I.M. Stewart's review of 'Sigmund Freud: Life and Work Vol II' by Ernest Jones, while the latter includes 'Academic Persons' by Stewart.Also present is a vanishingly scarce 1975 edition of 'The Appleby File' by Michael Innes, in the original English, published in Tokyo, but with notes in Japanese by Hajime Mori and Akio Teranishi. The first Japanese edition, including short stories starring Inspector John Appleby.The final volume is a very scarce 1979 first Italian language edition of Stewart's 'Meglio Erede che Morto'. This was first published in 1976 as 'The Gay Phoenix'. With tipped in advertisement leaves.John Innes Mackintosh Stewart was a Scottish novelist and academic, equally well known for the works of literary criticism and contemporary novels published under his given name, and for the crime fiction published under the pseudonym of Michael Innes. In the publisher's original paper wraps. Externally, smart. Fading to head of London Review 1956 volume, and with wraparound band to 1957 volume. Fading to back strip of 'Meglio' volume. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and bright. Very Good Indeed.…
