A literary monthly paid for by a biochemical laboratory and posted to Italian physicians — art, letters and medicine, never sold on a newsstand and never accessioned by a library. The numbering restarts at n. 1 every January.
A Mondadori part-work of illustrated biographies, sold weekly. This run dates itself: the issue numbers are printed on the spines, legible in two photographs of the stack.
Nothing here matches that.
