Add to basketCloth. Condition: Very Good. First edition. Two charming anthologies, one written by an East Anglian G.P. and the other celebrating his experiences in the West Country count of Devon. Two charming anthologies from respected British poets Leonard Ley and A. Nicholson Tucker. A Pot Pourri of Verse (1929, privately printed by W. He…ffer and Sons), and a signed Dart, Loveliest of Rivers, and other Devon Poems (1952, Arthur H. Stockwell).Pot Pourri is in the publisher's original blue cloth, while Dart is in the publisher's original brown paper boards. Dart contains Tucker's signed inscription on the front free end paper, and an interwar frontispiece of the poet.Originally from Exeter, Leonard Ley became a G.P. in East Anglia after studying at Pembroke College, Cambridge and serving in the First World War. A budding poet in his spare time, his abstract anthology A Pot Pourri of Verse demonstrates his love for language.Dart, Loveliest of Rivers is a celebration of the county of Devon and its glorious outdoors by Tucker. Wishing to communicate both his happy memories and the beauty of nature, the anthology often adopts a light-hearted tone. A personal anthology, Tucker also delves into his war experiences on the Macedonian Front and grief over lost friends. In the publisher's original blue cloth (Pot) and brown paper boards (Dart). Externally, smart, with the small odd mark to board extremities. Slight bumping to the heads and tails of the spines, and to the extremities. Small scratches to bottom right of Dart and slight fading. Minor rubbing on front joint of Pot, near tail of spine. End papers of Pot are bright and generally clean, with very faint spotting.

Pages are bright and generally clean, with a couple of small tidemarks to bottom of leaves pp.56-57 of Pot and the small odd spot to extremities of leaves of Dart, mostly to first leaves. Very Good.
