The striking modernist cover design for the prospectus and the first two issues is by Jack Maughan. '"Stream" answered remarkably well a particular need - which will always be present in Australia - the need for good translations of current European writing. It printed translations done by Australians of stories essays and poems contributed to European periodicals by such leading overseas writers artists and musicians as Georges Ribemont-Dessaignes Fernand Leger Arthur Honegger Valentin Katayev Mayakovski Frederic Lefevre Carmelo Puglionisi and "Azorin" José Martinez Ruiz. "Stream" also through its poetry editor Bertram Higgins aroused interest in the spare ironical intellectual poetry of Eliot and of the French symbolists who preceded him . "Stream" was unable to last for more than three issues partly because of the depression and partly because in editor Pearl's words "the self-appointed business manager got away with all the subscription money"' John Tregenza: 'Australian Little Magazines 1923-1954' pages 39-44 including a full-page illustration of the cover artwork of Number 3 'the work of the gifted young Melbourne artist Dominic Leon who was killed not long afterwards in a street accident'. 2 items.
