New American Review (issues 1-10) [complete set of the hardcover issues]

New York: New American Library. Near Fine. 1967-1970. 1st printings (except as noted). Hardcover. [graded Near Fine as a set; all books are tight and unread, and about as nice a group as one could hope to assemble despite a few minor depredations (occasional light wear, some age-toning to the page edges of a handful of volumes)]. "Was New American Review the Best Literary Magazine Ever?" This was the question posed (and the case persuasively argued) in a 2008 Slate article by Gerald Howard. Founded in 1967, New American Review passed through three publishers in its ten-year history, and a late-in-the-run title change to "American Review." Although published in a mass-market paperback format, the first ten issues (under the original New American Library imprint) were also issued in pictorial hardcovers ("Durabind"), and offered here is a complete set of those ten issues. All the volumes in this set are stated "First printings," with the single exception of #1, which is a 5th printing issued by the New American Library of Canada. These books (except for #10, which was sourced separately) were acquired directly from a long-time editorial staff member of NAR, who had kept them untouched in storage since the time of their original publication. ****NOTE that as a multi-volume set (even though they are small volumes), additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
