HAROLD MONRO. James Guthrie. — The Rebellious Vine. With decorations by James Guthrie.

The Poetry Bookshop, London [1921]., 1st Edition, First edition, issued as number fifteen of the Rhyme Sheet [second] series. A single sheet measuring 359 x 165mm. Monro's sixteen line poem is accompanied by two elegant green and blue Guthrie decorations. A little light spotting to top and right-hand border and just the occasional encroaching pin-prick of additional spotting. Very good. The first series of Monro's Rhyme Sheets, which numbered a total of twelve issues, began at appear in 1914 and were available with both coloured and uncoloured decorations (although the latter were swiftly phased out). A second series totalling twenty-four issues was produced after the war and "was probably as effective as any of [The Poetry Bookshop's] other devices for spreading the gospel of poetry" - Joy Grant, 'Harold Monro and The Poetry Bookshop'. Woolmer B2:15., Very Good
