New Britain, CT: REM Miniatures, 1971., 1971.. Very good. - Miniature [1-1/4 inches high by 2 inches wide], soft cover bound in handmade paper by Dard Hunter. A shape book in the form of a sarcophagus with a mummy laid out along the top. 20 pages in French fold. Near fine.
Limited edition of 50 copies signed by the book's creator Robert E. Massmann following his foreword.
The text recounts a wonderful story of a papermaker in the 1860s who found he was running out of rags to make his brown paper. He hit on the idea of importing mummies from Egypt and hiring women to strip them of the coverings and the rags encasing them. Unfortunately the handling of the rags infected the women with a disease which became an epidemic and caused the American government to pass a law that all imported rags must be disinfected.
