LEWIS, Wyndham (editor). The Enemy. [London:] The Arthur Press, January [February] 1927. Vol. 1. 8vo (281 x 186mm.) Several illustrations by Wyndham Lewis, including 1 in colour. (Toning.) Original wrappers (lacking lower cover, spine worn, chipped). Note: the first volume of Lewis's new magazine. The second and last issue of 'Blast' was published in 1915. The Enemy lasted for two years. But like 'Blast', its publication was delayed. Lewis explains this is in a note: 'The Enemy' was to have appeared in January, as indicated on the cover; but owing to a miscalculation as to the time required to prepare it, it is appearing in February instead'. - And a further twenty-four volumes of literary magazines and poetry pamphlets (including the 2nd and 7th issues of 'Transition', May-Oct 1927, small 8vo, and the first three issues of Jon Silkin's poetry magazine, 'Stand', 3 vols., 1952, 8vo) (25).
