Good+ to fair An unusual collection of seven (of ten) bound volumes of POOL's pioneering and pan-European film magazine, Close Up (1927-1933), likely in the original bindings, with adverts describing: "Reference books for future" with "orange cloth-back board volumes are priced at 10 shillings". Including both its monthly and quarterly formats. Amply illustrated with wonderful b/w stills (in part, to help circumvent British censorship of foreign films) and with original adverts, which helped fund the venture, alongside Bryher's familial wealth. Co-edited by Bryher, with Kenneth Macpherson at the helm, and featuring contributions from a wide spectrum of modernists and early film writers and practitioners, including H.D., Dorothy Richardson, Hanns Sachs, Harry A. Potamkin, Robert Herring, Clifford Howard, Marc Allagret, Jean Lenauer, S. M. Eisenstein, Geraldyn Dismond, Elmer Carter, Paul Rotha, Roger Burford, Yasushi Oguno, A. Kraszna-Krausz, Pearl Attasheva, and Erno Metzner.…

(inter alia, in praise of Noel Coward's 'Sirocco'), Robert Herring (in one instance criticising Hitchcock's early film, 'The Ring'), and Oswell Blakeston; from their wider circle come Dorothy Richardson, whose multiple contributions include her 'Continuous Performance' series and an article on 'Cinema in the Slums', Jean Prévost, Marc Allégret, et al. The attention of the periodical is broad, with a particular predilection for Russian and German cinema. …
