About This Item
Waldport, Oregon, 1945. Slightly soiled; near fine. 8vo, unpag. chapbook in wrappers, stapled. The final in-camp issue of this magazine of poetry, prose, and artwork, produced by internees in a Civilian Public Service camp for conscientious objectors during the Second World War. Two later numbers were produced in Pasadena, California several years later. Strikingly designed by Kemper Nomand, with a screen-printed cover. Among the interned contributors are poet William Everson and artist Robert Harvey, with further contributions from Henry Miller, Kenneth Patchen, Alex Comfort, and others.
