I have two copies of "The Raven" as it appeared in "American Review"--one a rebound individual edition, and one in the bound editions for the first half of 1845. My research proves that this poem, written under the pseudonym "blank Quarles," was not submitted by Edgar Allan Poe, but rather by the real, original author, Mathew Franklin Whittier. Poe merely scooped it by three days in the daily newspaper he wrote for, the NY "Evening Mirror"; but this was the real premiere by the real author. (KZfaq's software will not let me write the actual blank in "blank Quarles.")
