Local note

1. The Schomburg Center Manuscripts, Archives & Rare Book Division's copy in Sc Rare 170-A (accession no. F35724) is imperfect: loose, unbound, treated, and re-enforce with Japanese paste tissue; encapsulated in mylar and housed in a commercial 4-flap preservation pam --binder. The pamphlet, probably removed from the bindery, lacks the Schomburg Collection bookplate. Probably added to the collection when Catherine A. Latimer was the collection librarian; Lawrence Reddick was the Curator.
