TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Original spelling and grammar have been generally retained, with some exceptions noted below. The transcriber produced the cover image by slightly altering the original, and hereby assigns it to the public domain. Illustrations, other than drop-caps, have been moved from within paragraphs of text to nearby locations between paragraphs. For this purpose, I have treated stanzas of poetry like paragraphs of text. Original page images are available from archive.org—search for “pleiadesclubyear00plei”.
- The [List of Contributors] mentions a W. Krieghof, but the poem [A TOAST] was said to be illustrated by Krieghoff, and that is also the signature on the illustration. [The Tale of the Store Girl] was illustrated by “Adrian Machefert”, but the List of Contributors mentions an “Adrien Machefert”. [A Song] was written by “Philip Verrill Mighels”, but the List of Contributors has it “Phillip Verrill Mighels”. [The Old, Old Prayer] was supposedly written by “John W. Postgate”, but the List of Contributors mentions only “J. W. Postgare”.
- In the sixth paragraph of [Waiting!], a new right double quotation mark was inserted after ‘But I’ll phone you some time during the week.’.
- At the bottom of the poem [At the Pleiades], by Maurice V. Samuels, there was in our copy of the book what appears to be a hand-written signature of Maurice Samuels. This is retained as an image in this transcription, although we don’t know whether it was present in only one or all printed copies of this book. The image was edited slightly, to remove traces of text from the last line of the poem where the signature and poem overlapped. What appears to be the signature of Francesca di Maria Spaulding, following her poem, [The Wanderer], is also retained.
- Near the end of the book there were five pages dedicated to [Autographs] of club members, two of which were blank, followed by a blank page, followed by a sort of collophon with an emblem and the name of the publishing company, followed by more blank pages. The autographs are retained, although we don’t know whether they were present in one or all printed copies of the book. The blank pages have been ignored in this transcription.
