Issues of Urania published in 1923, including Nos. 37-38 (Jan-Apr), Nos. 39-40 (May-Aug), and Nos. 41-42 (Sep-Dec). Urania was a privately circulated feminist journal published in England from 1916-1940. The journal's foundational philosophy revolved around the abolition of gender, as the founders believed true feminist liberation could not be realized within a binary gender system.

These issues discuss gender expression in different parts of the world, women's growing presence in the workforce, pacifism, and marriage. Issues also contain several anonymous letters from readers, expressing their views on spirituality, morality, and education.
