Phillips dedication reads "for Ruth and Marvin Sackner, patrons, friends who guard my work between them like book ends." This fourth edition, as denoted on the dust jacket but as the third revised edition on its title page, contains about 40 pages in which a new image has been substituted for the original. The pages are printed as giclee printes which is a high class kind of ink jet on fine paper. A purple dust jacket covers the gold cloth covered, cardboard binding. Two humument fragment prints (Canon color copier?) are included in this special edition of the book. One print reads "the life time suspect who knew the arts connect - veil his hidden drama of suspected actors - persons and names : so the changes make the book continue." The color background surrounding a rectangle placed in the center consisting of gray-black murky figures from collaged old engravings consists of line drawn faces. The poem in this print references Tom Phillips' continuing involvement with A Humument. The other print reads, "scribe this once or twice story - scribing her own story of places and circumstance to the lute and the life - scibe art of another story - changed and turned - observe the written volume inside out." The major element in this print is a red rectangle of scribblings, possible a means to first creating A Humument page. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
