This is a rather nice edition of Sappho: the fragments are laid out clearly in section by theme; love, desire, despair, marriage, mother and daughter, the goddess of love, religion, poetry and the muses, nature and wisdom and there are simple b/w illustrations.

Its really easy to navigate, has a useful introduction, translation notes, chronology and short bibliography.
