Ezra Pound's Poetry and Prose: Contributions to Periodicals is the
multi-volume, facsimile, very expensive edition (Garland, 1991) of just
about everything Pound ever published in periodical form.  I've found it
invaluable--it has helped me to work much, much faster (no trekking to
Italy to find those obscure Italian maritime journals) and much, much
better.

I'm surprised that such easy access to "primary" sources hasn't had more
impact on Pound studies in the past few years.  How many of us out there
use this resource?  How often?  As for me, Columbia doesn't have a copy
(!) and it's prohibitively expensive, at about $100 per volume, to buy the
whole set, or even parts.  So it's Interlibrary Loan...

And thanks to Walt Litz, Lea Baechler, and James Longenbach for doing the
work on P&P!
