Scope and Contents

This book object was constucted from strips of foam board to give it its unconventional shape. Strips of handwritten texts about 3 mm wide were collaged onto the cardboard overlying the foam board construction. Paint was also applied to some portions of the collaged surface. The fragmentation of the text into strips rendered the text illegible. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
