soft. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Publication: Paris, transition / Shakespeare and Co., 1927 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 176. Condition Report: Very Good. The fragile, original paper wrappers remain entirely intact and structurally sound, a notable survival for the notoriously brittle yapp edges typical of Paris-produced Modernist periodicals. The overlapping edges display expected minor creasing, small closed tears, and light chipping, predominantly at the spine ends and corners. The spine is firm, largely unfaded, and avoids the heavy vertical reading creases often seen in thick paperbacks of this era. Internally, the binding is impressively tight. The text block is predominantly clean and bright with only gentle, uniform age-toning to the page margins. The original rough-cut, untrimmed textblock edges are well-preserved. Catalogue Note: First edition, original printing of the seventh issue of transition, the celebrated expatriate literary review. This copy notably retains the original tipped-in slip indicating UK distribution and pricing (2/3 net) by William Jackson (Books) Ltd. of London, a charming piece of publishing provenance showing its transatlantic distribution. The issue features a stunning array of Modernist heavyweights. Most famously, it contains a significant instalment of James Joyce's Continuation of a Work in Progress (eventually published as Finnegans Wake). The issue also includes contributions by William Carlos Williams, Laura Riding, Hart Crane, and Robert Graves, alongside reproductions of works by Alexander Calder and Max Ernst. Individual issues retaining their original wrappers in such cohesive condition are increasingly scarce on the open market, as many were either heavily damaged due to their fragile construction or bound up in institutional cloth. Founded in 1927 in Paris by Eugene Jolas and Elliot Paul, transition quickly became the most vital and ambitious "little magazine" of the interwar avant-garde. It served as the primary proving ground for the Revolution of the Word, offering a radical platform for surrealists, expressionists, and linguistic experimentalists. This October 1927 issue (Number 7) offers a brilliant cross-section of the era's creative explosion, giving readers the rare thrill of encountering Joyceâs mind-bending prose and Calderâs sculptures exactly as they were first unveiled to the world. Alexander Calder, Polelonema, Max Ernst (illustrator).…
