London: Modern Astrology Offices, 1935. First edition. 5 individual issues, each 25x16cm, continuously paginated 1-34, 35-72, 73-104, 105-134, and 135-168. Diagrams, few plate illustrations, each issue with separately paginated advertisements section. Printed wraps, generally very good with toning, soiling, and occasional light chipping.

Near complete run of Volume 32, New Series, of Alan Leo's (1860-1917) Modern Astrology magazine, lacking only the November-December issue.  The magazine was founded in 1890 as The Astrologer's Magazine, changing its name to Modern Astrology in 1895.  Its stated object was to "thoroughly purify and re-establish the ancient science of Astrology.  Through planetary symbology, it seeks to explain the ONE universal spirit in its varied manifestations." 


The periodical ran all the way until 1940, and along with other publications from its founder, helped revive astrology in the West after a steady decline the previous century.  


Issues in the original wraps, especially in this condition, are scarce.
