Founded by the ex-patriot poet, Arthur Harold Moss, the little monthly magazine, The Quill, was a satirical magazine for Greenwich Village, both for the Bohemian inhabitants and outsiders, each with a unique cover design and featuring literature and art by contributing editors, such as Harold Hersey, Horace Brodsky, Mary Carolyn Davies, Bernard Sexton, and Hugh Ferriss Perhaps of even greater interest are the contemporary advertisements and guides, such as Robert Edwards' hand-drawn map of Greenwich Village, which were largely tailored toward tourists, and the word puzzles, gossip columns, and other social commentaries conversely tailored toward the Village residents. Some wear/soiling and a few small tears to some wrappers; otherwise overall a good set. [Together with:] Fragments from Greenwich Village. By Guido Bruno.
