Hubert Dalwood, the resident Gregory Fellow in Sculpture designed this Poetry & Audience logo which quickly became the front cover of the magazine for a period from Volume 5 published on 11th October 1957.

The design appears to be made from a relief or lino print, which was easy to reproduce on an amateur scale by the new editorial team each year. Dalwood also made a relief sculpture which was attached to the editorship and was handed from one to the next but this has since been lost!

Thomas Blackburn was both Gregory Fellow and editorial advisor at this time and other editorial board members included Tony Harrison and AR Mortimer, both of whom would later become editors.
