MS, correspondence card, InU-Li.
MicroPUL, reel 1.
Pasted into a copy of SLC 1880, into which Merle Johnson appended an undated note: “Above is a personal card with the double signature—I have never seen another with his monogram.
rule This is the first edition—with the “Moses” frontispiece later changed to “Titians Moses” to conform to the list of illustrations—also with the portrait plates in the first state with the “ben dey” lines vertical.
Merle Johnson”
