Record details

THE YEAR OF THIS VOLUME IS NOT SETTLED, and the date field is deliberately empty rather than guessed. archive.org gives the item a date of 1917 and a volume of 1914; the copy held here was catalogued under 1914; the title page is recorded elsewhere as disputed between 1914 and 1917. The title-page leaf has not been fetched, so nothing here can decide it — read that leaf before citing a year. Five leaves are held: the index (n24), the classified block (n1552) and three display-advertisement leaves (n943, n1382, n1386), all machine-transcribed; no page image has been read by a person and no printed folio has been confirmed against a leaf. Rights, verbatim from the fetch record: status "public domain", basis "US publication, catalogued year 1914 (see note_on_dating)."

Everyone this source names

This document prints 5 names. A name found this way is the weakest thing this site records: the book names the person, and nothing more is said.

The rest are names and nothing else — which is an honest description of the evidence, and an invitation: if you know one of these makers, we want to hear from you.
