Minneapolis: Univ of Minnesota Press, 1957. Limited. Pictorial boards. Very Good. 48pp; woodcut, endpaper maps. This is #55 of an edition limited to 1,000, designed by Jane McCarthy and printed at the Lund Press. It contains a facsimile of a 16th-century German newsletter which "reports details of an unidentified voyage, specifying neither the names of the ships, the captains, nor geographic points visited." A long commentary describes several theories on the matter: a voyage to Brazil? to the Plate estuary? captained by Vespucci? Joao de Lisboa? Alfonso Rodrigues? 7.75" x 5.25"
