The Masses: Farmer. Vol. 1, No. 10. October 1911. by Winslow, Horatio [ed]; Wood, Eugene; Young, Art; et al - 1911

Folio. 18pp, illustrated, frontispiece. Stapled wraps printed in brown ink on brown paper, featuring a portrait of a farmer by Robert Robinson on the front and a large print of "The Destroyer" by Charles A. Winter on the rear. The Masses was an important and inflential radical magazine that was published in Greenwich Village from 1911 to 1917 when it was forced to shut down after a lengthy showdown with the government in which they stood trial accused of trying to "unlawfully and willfully…obstruct the recruiting and enlistment of the United States [military]". This issue, as the title implies, focuses on the plight of the farmer. Includes contributions by Eleanor Wentworth, Rufus W. Weeks, Frederick Sumner Boyd, Rufus James Trimble, Hank Jellis, Eugene Wood, Emanuel Julius, Pete Vlag, Andre Tridon, Carl Heileman, Donald Wand, Robert Hamburg, Jonas Atwater, and Fritz Von Brachstein. Other illustrators include Anton Otto Fischer (frontispiece), Maurice Becker, and Arthur Young. Wraps partially separated (bottom third), otherwise Very Good.
