Short Fiction Various: Past Masters 149, v1. 9 Jan 2024

Nineteen stories and one short poem, all in the life + 70 public domain. The poem is by David Wright O'Brien, a short story writer who burst on the scene in the late 30s, and died over Berlin during WW2. It is, so far as I know, his only published verse.
