Wow and Damn! that would require a special trip, which I'm not prepared to do at this time........ Some of the glyphs in the dictionary are rather amusing--see "baby, burger" and many others; but some are a bit obvious, like "bullet". Somehow I doubt it will travel the country/world......Hey-- Cleveland Library-- maybe you could get it???????? Many years ago I saw an exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum of somebody's work involving imaginary calligraphy; and Saul Steinberg used to do imaginary documents in a vaguely Cyrillic-ish calligraphy (they're probably inclluded in any big compendium of his work).
