Dear Robert Service
I'm completing a new anthology of Canadian poetry
to be published later this year by Penguin Books Ltd., and Would like to include in it of yours: THE CREMATION OF SAM McGEE.
I have to have clearance of copyright, Penguins go so -..idly abroad. My copy of yovr "Collected Verse" is publishedy by Ernest Benn Ltd., London, no copyright stated. The book of yours published by Dodd Mead, New York, is your copyright. Would a word from you of permission clear me, if the above is agreeable?
I hate to trouble you about such matters, but copyright is always an editorial challenge� sometimes insoluble.
With warmest regards,
Yours sincerely,
c/o Dodd Kead Publishing Co. 432 Fourth Avenue New York
