Scope and Contents
The text was written on translucent paper and then folded such that it remained on the inside surface of the sleeve pages. The ink writings appear as mirror writings on the outside surface owing to transmission through the translucency of the paper. The text was written on a slant on part of each page. It gives a Moebus strip-like appearance when the book is opened and several pages are viewed simultaneously through the translucent paper. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
