There’s one on eBay right now - 5.5x9.5” for only $12,000. Ruth was bi. She spent the final 20 years of her life with a male amanuensis who took the same care of her needs as her female friends had at one time or another. One of my best friends studied with her. That's a nice price. She could have used it when she was alive. _________________ Emily L.
