Scope and Contents

Mahayana typewritings are stored in a custom wooden box made by Molly Burgess whereas Theravada typewritings are stored between two plexiglas book covers. The limited edition book, 'Still,' of 25 copies depcits excellent reproductions of the originals to the extent that it is difficult to distinguish the original from the letterpress reproductions. However, the originals are typed on a single page whereas the reproductions in the book are printed on sleeve pages. A comparison between the blackness of the lettering generally showed more blackness with the originals than the reproductions. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
