Notes

Description from donor about collection: "This video and pair of pictures were used to submit a project for the INFO 5450 course 'Rare Books'. I enjoyed this project immensely, and am proud of what I created. We were allowed to use text that we had not written, provided that the quarto format was achieved and that the text ended on the last page. I had originally wanted to do H.P. Lovecraft's The Color Out of Space, but that would take way more than a single sheet of paper, so I settled for one of my favorite poems. I submitted this on October 10, 2021, from my home in New Fairview, Texas. I had a lot to do that week, and actually used this 'arts and crafts' project as a reprieve between working on other assignments."
