A complete run in 8 issues, each issue 12-16 pp., of the extremely anti-Semitic Argentinian journal under the editorial direction of Enrique Pedro Osés, profusely illustrated throughout with vivid, often cruel, caricatures and cartoons. Slight toning, scattered minor soiling, minor chipping/edgewear, some with repairs. Folio. Red cloth, original illustrated self-wrpps. bound in. Very minor abrasions. Buenos Aires, 1939-1940. Osés was an Argentinian nationalist journalist, who also edited the journals and newspapers El Pueblo, Crisol, El Pampero, and Criterio. La Maroma appealed to the popular sectors to hate the Jews for their supposed connections to British imperialism and usurious capitalism, as well as their alleged hoarding of the radio, the theater, and other professions. Other anti-Semitic newspapers and journals at the time included Clarinada, El Campero, and Cabildo, all published in a time before Germany lost the war. The effect of these journals and of anti-Semitism in Argentina was well-known; radical groups such as the LCA (Argentine Civic Legion), the Republican League, and ANA/ADUNA (Acción Nacionalista Argentina/Afirmación de una Nueva Argentina) were all defined by militarism and their members often took violent actions which included attacking Jewish-presenting people, crashing theatrical performances, graffiti, propaganda, and vandalism. Incredibly scarce; as of November 2019, WorldCat locates only a single holding in a North American library.
