[Back Creek Books]

Greetings All,

For your consideration:
~
(No. 7838 )  [Stout, Rex] Society for the Prevention of World War III.
PREVENT WORLD WAR III, MONTHLY BULLETIN (MAY, 1944, VOL. I, NO. 1 THROUGH
JULY-AUGUST, 1945, NO. 10).
New York: Society for the Prevention of World War III, 1944-1945. Full
cloth, Quarto, about 40 pages per issue, Black & white photographs,
drawings. Very Good.
      The first 10 issues of this World War II magazine which was bent on
making sure Germany would be made to pay for its war crimes after the war
and was taught a stern enough lesson that it wouldn’t be able to incite yet
another world war in 20 more years. Rex Stout was the president of the
Society for the Prevention of World War III, and two of his articles appear
in the issues here. Other contributors include Paul Gallico, Norman Cousins,
Louis L. Snyder, Emil Ludwig, Clare Booth Luce, Darryl Zannuck, and many
more. All 10 issues are bound together with their front covers in a single
volume. With the exception of a few pages showing rust marks from paper
clips at their top edges, the interior is clean and bright. The volume is
bound in black cloth over boards with gilt-stamped spine and upper board
titles. The cloth binding on the exterior is rather spotted with some fading
toward edges and a few rubs to extremities, but the material inside has been
well protected. Scarce.    $150.00
