Designed by Oscar Mellor, the man behind the Fantasy Press, this has the most decorative cover of any of the Fantasy's issues: a giant red on yellow handwritten logo. The editors believe there to have been no Oxford Poetry in 1958, but the evidence either way is slight, and we would be pleased to be corrected.
