More Information

Issue 7 of the journal Poetry London. Cover illustration is a reproduction of The Lyre Bird: Cover Design for Poetry (HMF 2063). Two plates included between pages 32 and 33 reproduce shelter drawings with a poem by Anne Ridler on the reverse: Group of Shelterers During an Air Raid (HMF 1808), and Two Figures Sharing the same Green Blanket (HMF 1705). HMF 1705 is reproduced without Moore's notes which appear above the drawing; HMF 1808 is captioned "Group of Figures in Underground Shelter".

Seven other issues of Poetry London have Moore drawings on the cover: issues 8 (0008437), 11 (0008438), 12 (0008439), 13 (0008440), 14 (0008441), 15 (0008442), and 16 (0008443).

Issues 1-23 of Poetry London were reprinted in five volumes in 1970 (0004725); issue 7 is in volume 2.
