Item description from seller

[Cleveland, OH]: Polemic Society of Western Reserve University [Case Western Reserve University], 1959. Magazine (25cm); 135pp. Lichtenstein’s woodcut dust jacket with wine text to front panel; stiff staple-bound wrappers. All ten woodcuts and relief etchings present. Jacket predictably bumped and toned, especially along spine, with surface-level scratches to front panel. Wrappers bumped at spine ends and lightly toned; otherwise clean. Binding sound. Textblock clean. Toning due to ink transfer on pp84; interior pages otherwise clean. A Very Good copy. A typed, signed note from Lichtenstein is laid-in in its original envelope. Lichtenstein’s brief note, dated 1990, confirms that the woodcut cover is the only piece he contributed to Polemic during the magazine’s run.
