About This Item
East Aurora, NY: The Roycrofters, Publisher, 1910. Wraps. Good. Yellow printed wraps. A single issue of this little magazine from the turn of the century, featuring essays and philosophical/literary musings on culture, society, art and literature, as well as short aphorisms and sayings throughout. Founded by Hubbard after his 'bitter experience with the New England intellectual and literary elite,' the Philistine was at first intended as a 'one-off jibe at the establishment.' (MacLeod: American Little Magazines of the 1890s). Published through the Roycrofters community in New York, the magazine eventually became a vehicle for Hubbard to express his political and cultural views, while incorporating the Arts and Crafts aesthetic popular at the time, into printing and layout. This issue with an article written by inventor and author Milo Hastings, finding positives in the marrying of first cousins. GOOD condition. General browning to the wraps. Moderate spotting/staining along the spine. Interior rather browned. Alphanumeric sequence in pencil on the first page.
