Item description from seller

New; pristine. Preprinted subscriber's address on rear cover (all examples of this publication to this point were thus mailed). See scans and description. Philadelphia: Chemical Heritage Foundation, 2017. The Spring, 2017 issue of the new incarnation of the artfully executed Distillations magazine (subhead: Science-Culture-History), Volume Three, Number One. Richard Nixon cover article (How a Republican President Ushered in the EPA). Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 48 pp. New, and flawless. Preprinted subscriber address on rear cover (all examples of Distillations are subscriber-mailed). See scans. Original collectible tipped-in postcard, bearing the reproduced image of a late-1800s trade-card advertising "waterproof linen" cuffs, remains pristine within as well (see scan of that). A periodical one hopes will be a long-lived publication, for its taste, interest, art, focus (nicely eclectic, well within the publisher's realm but with tangential variety) and production values. Feature articles include: Nixon - Environmentalist? Polymath Meghnad Saha; Mary Roach Book, 'Grunt' (Projectile Chickens); Women's Physical Emancipation;19th Century "Recipe for Good Health"; Rush Holt Jr.; Jean-Antoine Nollet & Electric Kisses; Collectible Postcard; Ozone; Life on Mars; Hope Jahren. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR33.
