Scope and Contents

Jackman writes at the bottom of the box, "From the old, rare, curious one of a kind foreign unfit to read, non archival book collection." Seven varying shaped collage assemblages are stacked in the richly collaged box which has a lid with a handle made from a carved and embellished pencil. The scrolls consist of hand printed poems on the recto and drawings on the verso. These also include pseudo-Chinese ideograms. As usual, a tour de force by Jackman! -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
