With thanks to
garm for pointing this out on Facebook -
It is possible to browse (and download!) the entire volume of
A Spring Harvest by Geoffrey Bache Smith through the online repository of The British Library. The book is available without license (it is in the public domain).
This volume of poetry was edited by Tolkien, who also wrote the prefatory note. GB Smith was one of the TCBS and a friend of Tolkien's who died in the Great War.

Is anyone on these boards in touch with Douglas Anderson? I heard rumours some years ago that he was planning an edition of A Spring Harvest but have not heard anything since... Perhaps it was put aside to work on the 3rd edition of The Annotated Hobbit (and other stuff)?

Don't know. Do you want me to ask him?
