First edition. Volume 3, in original publishers boards, of Charlotte Perkins Gilmans groundbreaking monthly magazine, *The Forerunner*, acquired from Gilmans estate. Tall octavo. pp. 336, [4 (contents)]. Illustrated terra cotta cloth stamped in black. Light spotting to the edges of the boards, modest toning to the outer edges of the endleaves, near fine. Written entirely by Gilman, The Forerunner featured serialized novels, short fiction, essays, articles, and verse; and was published by her with the aim of stirring one to action "upon the Progress of Women". This volume contains the first appearance of the feminist novel *Mag-Marjorie*, and extended critical essay *Our Brains and What Ails Them*. Both the novel and essay appear here serialized and complete in twelve issues (January-December, 1912). A scarce copy in original boards. According to information provided by Gilman's estate, less than 200 hardcover copies of each volume of the Forerunner were printed.
