Local Note

Latimer was the Collection librarian and Lawrence Reddick was the curator. It includes NYPL's bookplate of "Arthur A. Schomburg Negro Collection"; but lacks the NYPL perforated stamp and any other stamps or processing markings of the original Schomburg Collection.Bound in red cloth over boards, library binding with additional blank pages at the back, and gilt spine title.
