Notes: An important early cinema magazine 'devoted to films as an art', this issue featuring contributions by Macpherson, Oswell Blakeston, Bryher, and H.D.'s review of 'Turksib' - demonstrating her unfailing ability within this organ to mention the Pabst/Garbo film 'Joyless Street', but here also referring to Buster Keaton's 'The General'.The long poem, 'Second-Rate Sex' is by Norma Mahl, a patent pseudonym - apparently for Robert Herring.
