[REVIEWS] 391. No. 19. Paris, October 1924 . - Double leaf in-folio. Last issue of this famous Dada magazine, subtitled Journal de l'Instantanéisme. It includes a text entitled Opinions and Portraits, a diatribe against an article by Maurice Martin du Gard, signed by Francis Picabia, with this qualifier: "Director of the surrealism of André Breton". There are also two texts by E. L. T. Mesens and René Magritte respectively, as well as a major advertisement for Picabia's ballet Relâche. The first page is illustrated with a light green superimposed portrait identified as that of Marcel Duchamp by Picabia. It is actually that of boxer Georges Carpentier. The copy had been folded in four for mailing; it therefore has folds and part of the postage stamp. Minimal tears in the folds and some dirt.
