by SAUERS, W[illard] Ray
Boston: The Stratford Company, 1929. First Edition. Octavo. Cord-bound pamphlet; printed card wrappers with patterend glassine overlay; 39pp. Romantic lyrics by a discernibly self-trained poet. In the publisher's attractively-produced series of vanity chapbooks gathered under the uniform series title "The Stratford Poets." A few of Sauers' poems are perhaps just suggestive enough to lend hope to the reader attracted by the title's unintentional double entendre. (Inventory #: 49374)
