Description: New York, The Review of Reviews Corporation, 1932. Paperback. (Vol. LXXXVI, No. 1). Small 4to. Stiff tan wrappers. 64pp. Numerous illustrations and advertisements, including the usual delightful rear cover color ad for "Lucky Strike" cigarettes -- this issue featuring an endorsement from Douglas Fairbanks Jr. Very good. Minor shelfwear and soiling -- overall tight and attractive. Contents include Owen D. Young's "Youth and the Economic Avalanche," John D. Rockefeller Jr.'s "The Failure of Prohibition," John Erskine's "Our College Degree Tag," Frederick H. McDonald's "A Plan to Stabilize Business," Alfred E. Smith's "A Halt to Veteran Legislation" and Walter Lippmann's "Governor Roosevelt and Mayor Walker." Discrete ex-library, the only markings being a couple of slight inkstampings. Editor-journalist-historian Shaw (born 1857) founded this long-running monthly in 1891, and it pursued a broad agenda covering U.S. and world political, economic and social issues for decades. .
