Broadside. Announcement in hand-set type by Koch, rubricated in orange, presswork on a folio leaf of unspecified stock, folded twice to make it a mailable 5/5x10 inches, this item accompanied by a self-described "first showing of the alpha version of Parmenides, a new Greek typeface designed by Dan Carr", one of only 150 exemplars, to be distributed at the lecture series. This First Showing is also large but is folded only once and makes a 16x9.5 inch folder/brochure much too large to be mailed with the smaller Announcement. Very good copies, sold together.
