Scarce collection of 1928 issues of Liberty Magazine containing early appearances of many of Kipling's rarest poems. Folio, five issues, original illustrated wrappers. The collection includes issues featuring the appearance of: Rio (January 7, 1928), Light and Power (January 28, 1928), A Drop in Traffic (February 18, 1928), A City and a Silence (March 17, 1928), and World By Itself (March 31, 1928). Founded in 1924, American weekly Liberty Magazine featured contributions from some of the biggest politicians, celebrities, authors, and artists of the 20th-century. Kipling's brother-in-law was an associate editor from the magazine's founding through his death on October 17, 1939. In fine condition. Each issue is housed in a custom half morocco and chemise slipcase. English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist Rudyard Kipling's major works include The Jungle Book (1894), Kim (1901) and many short stories and poems. Kipling was born in India, which inspired much of his work and his innovative stories for children have become timeless classics. Kipling was one of the most popular writers in the British Empire, in both prose and verse, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1907.
