Broadside, approximately 13½" x 9", printed in black, blue and red on wove paper; old bookseller's description taped to verso (and from whence the following comes), else fine. "Nowhere on this broadside does it show that it was printed at the Prairie Press, but it is pictured in the article "Carroll Coleman on Printing - Excerpts from a 36-Year's Correspondence with Emerson G. Wulling" (Books at Iowa, no. 23, 1975). In a personal conversation, Carroll Coleman told me that he had always admired this quote, and as he had just acquired Eric Gill's "Joanna" type, he decided to make the first use of it for the body of this broadside." This is a distinct edition from that of the same text which is twice folded and printed on two sides. Not in Cheever.
