Price: $250.00

Softcover. Magazine. Quarto. 27pp. Stapled self-wrappers. Very good with some wear at the extremities including tears and bumps, a small chip to the rear wrap, and a partial embossed library stamp on the front wrap (but no other library markings of any kind). Signed in ink by Benet at his contribution, the poem "Winged Man": "Stephen Vincent Benét (first appearance in an adult magazine)." A pencil notation by a collector at the top of the front wrap notes Benét's signature and the page number, while the inside wrap shows the date of purchase. The author's first professional magazine appearance published the same year as his first book, *Five Men and Pompey*.
