Publisher: New English Weekly
Place Published: London
Year: 1934
Date & Collation: (21 June) 5(10) 234.
Description: Review of 0009257, noting that Moore's figures contain the common denominator of all types of humanity" and seeing that "it was a mistake to have called Moore's sculpture degenerate" (See 0009278).

Date & Collation: (26 April) 5(2) 38-40.
Description: Review of exhibition and book (See 0009258), seen as of very limited and relative importance...
