Walked to BAPL this morning with Indochine Profonde notecard in hand, only to be told by one librarian that the book has [suddenly] been removed from The Hanley Collection moved into the library from former Carnegie Library premises addressed Congress at Corydon Streets decades ago. Nothing is more irritating or hate-worthy than the sudden disappearance of a volume that provides relevant research material, especially since one photo shows a man with his cheek pierced using a pointed metal object, that might be linked with human remains found with animal oracle-bones in Shanghai, China. If the book is gone with intent to find the mystery man and update the 'Indochina Experience', more power to them.
Otherwise, the stacks have also revealed book titled, Mr. Shakespeare of the Globe by Frayne Williams, New York: E. H. Dutton & Company, Inc. 1941; the title is also found as one chapter within the volume that also presents chapter in Table of Contents titled 'The Great Folio of 1623' that may well be allusion to mucousal-artifact [egglike] oracle-bead content-imagery.
