Minnesota Quarterly [v 8 #3, Spring 1931] ed. Eleanor C. Barthelemy (University of Minnesota, 40¢, 78pp, 5½" x 8¾") Prize results included Dorothy Skulnik for prose (for her Shadow and After the Door Slammed) and Austin Faricy for poetry (for Eleven Sonnets). [DKL]
Minnesota Quarterly [v 9 #2, Winter 1932] ed. Harry E. Pederson (University of Minnesota, 40¢, 80pp, 5½" x 8¾") The Sarchet story is a fantasy; the only such I noted in these three issues (though Im only skimming and could have missed something). [DKL]
Minnesota Quarterly [v 9 #3, Spring 1932] ed. Harry E. Pederson (University of Minnesota, 40¢, 80pp, 5½" x 8¾") note: The Quarterly Prize for prose went to Howard Wandrei for The Romany Rye and that for poetry to Louis Evans for Wind-Thirst. Monica Crawczyk placed second in prose and Donald Wandrei in poetry. The Spring 1932 was the last issue of Minnesota Quarterly until a revival (Fall 1948 through Spring 1950, which Ill likely index later). Theres nothing in the Spring issue to indicate a suspension was planned. [DKL]

Minnesota Quarterly [Winter 1949] ed. Wallace Neal (University of Minnesota, 64pp, 6" x 8½") note: the Nicholson poem is Windstorm on the toc and Wind Storm on page 48. I dont know if the Harold Adams in this issue is the Minnesota-based detective story writer (1923- ) or not, but it seems probable as he got a bachelors degree at the U of MN in 1950. [DKL]

Minnesota Quarterly [Winter 1950] ed. Bill Hackney (University of Minnesota, 25¢, 64pp, 6" x 8½") also, photographs by Charles Alden of sculptures by Harold Adams. No indication of why material from presumtive non-U of MN folks Feikema, Farrell, and Derleth is present, not that Im complaining. [DKL]
The Minster Standard size, 112pp, price 6d. Photos or illoes on almost every page. Its mostly non-fiction. The issue I have is Vol.1 No.2, February 1895, and in the brief editorial called Minster Chimes it comes out with the usual guff about being pleased with the reception it has received and that it hopes it is filling a gap. It says it is intended primarily as a Church magazine, and thats not only obvious from the title but evident from the articles which are very theological and ecclesiastical. [MA]
The Minster [v 1 #2, February 1895] (6d, 112pp, standard) Fiction only. [MA]
