I did a brief gander at the New General Catalog of Old Books and Authors, and it lists Spring and All as first published in 1922. If you can verify this, it will probably clear. Also, it might be worth your while to establish non-renewal, if you really wanted to get this particular book out. Despite WCW's reputation, I noted that the NGC listed 'The Great American Novel' among books pulished in 1923 that did not have their copyright renewed. This isn't particularly surprising. I've found Pulitzer prize winning novelists who didn't bother to renew their copyrights on their early work. -- RS
