Commerce Cahier XXI de l'automne 1929

First edition published in 2900 copies, ours being one of the copies on Alfa paper reserved for the press service.
Light foxing affecting mainly the edges.
Literary contributions by Thomas Stearns Eliot "Som de l'Escalina", Paul Valéry "Le livre de Christophe Colomb", Léon-Paul Fargue "Mimes", Valery Larbaud "Le patron des traducteurs"...
Commerce, literary review founded by Marguerite Caetani, appears in the form of twenty-nine "quarterly notebooks published under the care of Valéry, Fargue and Larbaud" between 1924 and 1932. Its publication forms part of the competitive tradition of French reviews of the 1920s and does not simply showcase the most prominent authors of French literature: it plays a role as "discoverer" of young talents and unearths forgotten capital texts.
