Berger, Printing and the Mind of Merker, 64: "These volumes were intended to be numbered and to be accompanied by a portfolio of Sinsabaugh's photographs, but Sinsabaugh never had the photographs printed, partly because one set of negatives was ruined in a flood. The book was not issued by the Stone Wall Press but was printed there and sold to Sinsabaugh to be distributed by him.".
