According to Wiki, My Object All Sublime was also the name of an unrelated science fiction short story published in 1942 by Lyle Monroe, better known as Robert Heinlein.

Anderson's story was published in 1961. I'm annoyed that I didn't think to wiki the title before now, so this should have surprised me weeks ago.
