Covers somewhat discoloured with age and handling. Fragile spine worn with some slight loss, and split along the lower front edge, but largely intact. Pages slightly creased at the top corner.

Scott, 'Some Recollections of Paul Valery' by Dorothy Bussy, 'A Letter About Architecture' by E. Maxwell Fry, with illustrations, 'Samuel Palmer's Friends' by Geoffrey Grigson, 'Design and Function in Typography' by Holbrook Jackson, 'Portrait of a Town' by Bernard Gutteridge, Poems by Olivier Larronde and Reviews by Julia Strachey. ***'Horizon: A Review of Literature and Art was a literary magazine published every four weeks in London, between December 1939 and January 1950. The magazine was edited by Cyril Connolly, who made it into a platform for a wide range of distinguished and emerging writers. It had a print run of 120 issues. The magazine had a small circulation of around 9,500, but an impressive list of contributors, and it made a significant impact on the arts during and just after the war.'
