 * 1) The long span of publication and reprinting shows Mary Plain's popularity continued over a long period.
 * 2) The price reached by copies in good condition shows this author's books are highly collectable (although none is currently in print).
 * 3) It is expected that there are monographs or journal articles on this author. There are probably review of the books on publication.
 * 4) As the author's first publication was in 1930, they are probably well over 70 years old. There may be obituary material.
 * 5) My grand-daughter, aged 7, likes the stories.

Shocked
I am shocked that we know nothing of Gwynnedd Rae (although when I read the Mary Plain stories I never knew if it was a man or a woman - at least I now know that she's a woman!). There also does not appear to be a Mary Plain article. I had better get busy. DavidFarmbrough (talk) 05:13, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
