'Harry Maasz' was released in 1939 not 1959 – references Modern Roses 6, Modern Roses 10, Combined Rose List, The American Rose Society Encyclopedia of Roses c2003. Wilhelm Kordes should be listed as breeder not Reimer – reference The American Rose Society Encyclopedia of Roses c2003. Also – rose is listed as single 4-8 petals – reference Modern Roses 6 & Modern Roses 10 – pictures posted are double? Are these pictures correct?

I haven't yet found a contemporaneous description of the bloom form. But I agree that all the shots I've seen show a semi-double to double bloom.
