Description: 32pp From the promotional brochure, "an essay of 9000 words - one of the profoundest contributions to metaphysical thought - a note of assurance in the rudely timed and ill-pitched symphony of life." A newspaper clipping of Hartmann is laid into the brochure. An unusual illustration on the front cover has printed underneath "Inter-Planetary Line - Sailings Daily." Handwritten at the bottom of the front cover (probably in the author's hand) is, "granted and issued to: Dr. Walter J. Briggs." An uncommon item!!!
