N.p.: n.d. [Ponape], [1858?]. Broadside, 24 x 20 cm, uncut as issued. A spelling sheet, untitled.

See Ballou: "Preliminary Bibliography of Books in the Language of Micronesia." [Boston, 1900]. E. F. Kunz: "Annotated Bibliography of the Languages of the Gilbert Islands, Ellice Island and Nauru." [Sydney, 1959]. Kunz locates only one copy [at Harvard]. A copy at Sotheby's, London fetched 700 pounds.
