159 pp., 8vo, tan wrapper with yapp edges, text pages untrimmed. A literary quarterly edited by T. S. Eliot during its entire run from October 1922 until it ceased publication in January 1939 ("Perhaps one of the most influential critical reviews of its day," Miller-Price 45). Contents include: the first appearance of D. H. Lawrence's short story, "Jimmy and the Desperate Woman"; and Conrad Aiken's poem "Psychomachia". The author names Feiron Morris and Felix Morrison were two of a number of pseudonyms used by Vivien Eliot, wife of T. S. Eliot. Also with reviews by Wyndham Lewis, Herbert Read, Conrad Aiken, F. S. Flint, and Harold Monro. A good, reasonably well-preserved copy overall; contents clean; wrapper age-toned and lightly soiled; wrapper yapp edges worn and frayed as usual, with some pieces missing.

This Canadian-born actor of stage and screen is best remembered as Bea Arthur's nemesis on television's "Maude" (1972-78) and as beloved father figure Philip Drummond on "Diff'rent Strokes" (1978-86). Bold large signature in black fineline, heavy stock 5" X 3" card, n.p., n.y. Fine. Accompanied by a glossy 8" X 10" "Diff'rent Strokes" cast, a formal "wedding photo" from the 1984 season showing Bain and his two adopted boys in tuxedoes, his daughter in formal gown, bride Dixie Carter clutching wedding bouquet and her son also in tuxedo. Fine. A fun pair.
