Apparently a complete run in 47 issues. Vol. 1 #1-17, vol. 2 #1-18, and vol. 3 #1-12. Tabloid format. Very Good, paper toned, generally with neat horizontal fold crease; a few issues with closed edge tears or a split beginning along the fold. Tiny pencil marks to front wraps, easily erased. Rare. An American anarcho-pacifist newsletter that did not shy away from controversy. It stuck up for Julius and Ethel Rosenberg when even many on the Left were cowed, covered global events as well as the burgeoning Civil Rights movement, Catholic anarchism, and (perhaps most controversially of all) the Puerto Rican nationalist movement, members of which had attempted to assassinate President Harry Truman in 1950 and wounded five lawmakers in a 1954 shooting at the US House chamber. In the final issue, Conrad Lynn and Bayard Rustin contributed pieces on the murder of Emmett Till.
