Local Note
The Schomburg Center's Manuscripts, Archives & Rare Book Division's copy is probably a post-Lawrence Reddick addition to the collection. Bound in red cloth over boards library binding with additional blank pages at the back; and gilt spine title. Imperfect: parts of the text may be lacking, because some of the pages were trimmed in library binding.
