Scope and Contents

McCarney removed the covers of this encyclopedia and constructed a back case from cardboard that he covered in cloth. The opened front exposes groups of collaged pages whose edges have been chiseled out to form a zig-zag pattern. The horizontal dimensions of these 12 groups of pages become progressively smaller from back to front. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
