For the Unlost, vol. 4 of the series
Carroll Coleman, Iowa City, Iowa, 1946
Description
Juror Notes
The general feel and style of this entry seemed to the jury above the average of other books of verse. The presswork and the quality of the ink are fine and correct for the Centaur and Arrighi types on soft paper of rather deep color. A brighter gold would have been better for stamping this book.
