Abstract

I had had a rather dry run of looking for books in Powell's Rare Book Room, a favorite haunt. A helpful employee had suggested that I rummage through the ephemera in boxes on top of a chest of drawers. I think this item was the very last in the last box. I have a number of copies of this booklet, but no first printing. Voila! This booklet comes with its own protective orange envelope. I wrote of other printings and versions that the style is distinctive, but alas I do not find one good illustration (or story for that matter) that I would want to use. People should have a chance to see this book, but so far at least I do not find in it the fantasy or nuance I find in many others.
