About This Item
Pawlet VT: printer Fredericks the publisher, 1956. Ephemera. [2]p., sewn, letterpress on a single leaf of unwatermarked but splendid paper, paginated 96/97 (ergo, the essay was printed in toto, and each friend got a leaf of the result). Protected in the original matte-blue wraps bearing a printed paper label. Content fine, wrapper edgeworn with an inch long rip to rear cover, but everything else (spinefold, thread, label, general surface) is very good to fine. This fascicle neatly enough, fore & aft, is Bacon's expansion on the Pauline tri-cept, faith hope charity.
