One of Gloria Stuart's smaller limitations from her Imprenta Glorias press, a poem in four versions, beautifully illustrated and produced. The first leaf reads:
"I started writing a poem about flying a kite whilst walking along the beach at Santa Monica in a blustery wind. The title is wrong. It should read 'Writing a poem about a kite flying.' Apologies! Gloria Stuart"
OCLC identifies just over half of the limitation (13) held in libraries.
