Notes:
BEIN WIPA 418: Paperbound with printed wrapper. From the Peter E. Palmquist Women in Photography International Archive.

"What follows represents a selection of things from one day's property recovered by the London Transport Lost Property Office. By mimicking the style of a museum catalogue--an institution founded on accumulation and display--Lost property parodies the perfection of a collection, the objects here are always incomplete, fallen from narration, with no prospect of return."--Page [2] of wrapper.

Sewn binding; paper cover.
