    I logged in for the first time in years a couple of days ago and spent a few pleasant hours browsing the collection threads. A great trip down memory lane! This one caught my eye - I'm pretty sure this was part of my collection once. I got it from another member here who got it directly from Michael Alpert if I recall correctly. I believe I sold it to Jon P when I let go of my collection. Good to see it's still in the family, so to speak. I'm glad it's yours now, John.

I still haven't found another copy since returning to collecting proofs. However, I did find what I consider to be a rarer version of that proof. Along with this letter from Michael Alpert, I have the laser-copy version of the entire unbound proof. In addition, this set includes a flawless copy of the actual pamphlet -- unnumbered and unsigned. I did not find the words "out of series copy" on my copy. In addition, each page states "Smooth" or "Rough" at the bottom left as mentioned in the Alpert letter. I read that this version is easier to locate but I had never seen one until 2019. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this.

    John

    Hi Michaël,

    It is great to see you on the site again! Thanks for the nice words regarding the NLR. Unfortunately, Jon decided to part with almost everything SK-related other than his UK 1st editions. He graciously offered me the opportunity to regain and expand my footing in the proof and manuscript world. I'm very lucky and extremely grateful for that opportunity. I will take great care of the NLR!

    I hope that you are doing well and it would be great to see you around more frequently -- even if to just say hello! Take care!

    Best,
    John
