The Collector's Portfolio contains reproductions of the ERB's seminal correspondence with his editor concerning The Moon Maid and the first manuscript pages with corrections for all three novellas. Each piece gives unique insights into ERB's process for creating The Moon Maid. ERB Books locates thousands of sheets of vintage paper - some more than 100 years old - to give an added level of authenticity to these replicas. Much of the paper used is 9 lb onion skin typing paper - half the thickness of copy paper - that requires printing and folding by hand. | |
