Approximately a dozen vintage photocopies of exhibits and approximately 140 mimeographed pages consisting of a draft of the appeal followed by excerpts from transcripts, affidavits, and exhibits. In a black binder labeled “L.A. Obscenity Appeal”. 38x24 cm (15x9½"). Great content, but clearly not complete and with some mimeographed pages duplicated. Only a few holographic corrections in Bruce’s hand; not significant but clearly establishing provenance.
