Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very Good, as noted. See scans and description. Philadelphia: Chemical Heritage Foundation, 2015. The Premiere Issue of the new incarnation of the artfully executed Distillations magazine (subhead: Science-Culture-History), Volume One, Number One. Quite scarce already. Quarto, illus…trated staple-bound wraps, 48 pp. Very Good, but this rare example would be Fine, but for someone having removed about 25% of the rear cover (see scan), presumably at the location of a mailing label. In every other way, pristine; but 25% percent of the rear cover missing doesn't allow better than a VG. The very first issue of what one hopes will be a long-lived publication, for its taste, interest, art, focus (nicely eclectic, within the publisher's realm but with tangential variety) and production values. Feature articles include: History of Chemical Warfare (strong articles, and a timeline); Substance X - Brain's Painkillers; Charles Blagden; Soft Robots; Early 20th C Optimism; Drugstore Poison; Early Science Cartoons; Atomic Age Jewelry; Fritz Haber; and quite a lot more. Nice graphics. Shipped in a protective, new box - no bag for this one. LPR18.
