Only a few left on hand of this item. 

This is a now rare single 60-page complete issue of Poetry (Chicago) for August 1943. "An Issue of Work by Poets in the Service." A good copy that has a little soil to the paper wrappers. Nice and clean internally. 

See photo #3 for complete contents. 

Some highlights I find include:

A "Correspondence" from "Poets in the Service" feature with letters from David Daiches, Army Major Merrill Moore, and William Van O'Connor, among others.  

Randall Jarrell, then an Army/Air Force PFC at Chanute Field in Illinois, finds time to send four poems, including "Absent With Official Leave" and "The Emancipators."

Stanley Kunitz, recently drafted, then stationed at Ft. Benjamin Harrison in Indiana, offers five new poems. 

Pilot (parts unknown) Howard Nemerov's first contribution to the monthly, "Sigmund Freud."

Recently escaped from the Nazis French patriot (somewhere in France) Louis Aragon's "Petite Suite Sans Fil I-II." Translated here by Rolfe Humphries.

Seven poems by future Poetry editor Karl J. Shapiro, then serving in the Pacific.

Two early poems by the young (age 25) future Poet Laureate, critic and translator William Jay Smith, then just commisioned an ensign in the Navy and currently serving near, or on, an island in the Pacific.   

James E. Schevill offers (his 2nd contribution to the monthly) two new poems. He had just graduated from Army OCS.

English poet Roy Fuller pens a new poem "Spring 1943, I-II."
