Otherwise in very good condition with only minor signs of wear. While it would usually be desirable to have these issues in their original, unbound form, these two privately bound Volumes are actually a blessing and led to these issues to be preserved in unusually excellent condition. A Rare run of this peridocal, with a provenance of one "Frl. Nippoldt" (Miss Nippoldt), Weissenburgstr. 17 / Kleiner Ausschnitt auf Seite 5 der Nummer 2 von 1925 (Werbung) / (1 cm Einriss in den Rand der Nummern von Band 1 - Text nicht betroffen) / Titelblatt der Nummer 49 des II.Jahrgangs (1926) fehlt / Sonst sehr gut erhalten. Auch wenn eine ungebundene Broschur-Version dieser seltenen Zeitschrift einer Privatbindung normalerweise vorzuziehen ist, so ist in diesem Fall die Wahl der Bindung sehr gelungen und man ist fast dankbar wie gut die einzelnen Ausgaben dadurch erhalten wurden. Einige der Ausgaben haben einen alten Besitzvermerk: "Frl. Nippoldt" - "Weissenburgstr.17", sowie gelegentliche, interessante Kommentare und Annotationen im Text (mit Bleistift)". Extremely important literary periodical from the Weimar Republic, with an amazing amount of early articles by Walter Benjamin and contributions by many other significant expressionist writers. The periodical is a wonderful mix of advertising for new writing, meeting-place of controversy and also a great record of literature reflected in political and philosophical view of the Inter-war years. Included are for example: 1. Walter Benjamin (who has several contributions within the periodical, incl. "Wandkalender der Literarischen Welt" für 1927 - [being a "Calendar for the Literary World of the Year 1927" which is showing a double-page Illustration by Rudolf Großmann] 2. Thomas Mann (who has several contributions within the periodical) 3. Alfred Polgar (who has several contributions within the periodical) 4. Heinrich Mann (who has several contributions within the periodical) 5. Robert Musil (who has several contributions within the periodical) 6.
