1 On 17 July Frank Bliss replied for his father: “We send via mail a very few of the circulars all that we have today, shall have plenty in 2 or 3 days as soon as some corrections are made in the plates, we send a few to Redpath, & will send him more in a short time, if you wish more of them let us know, have all you want” (CU-MARK). The corrected circular, with a redesigned final page, was most likely the one distributed, at least on occasion, at Clemens’s lectures during the fall of 1869. It was incorporated into the canvasser’s prospectus for The Innocents Abroad, which was ready on 13 July (“Mark Twain’s New Book,” Boston Journal, 10 Nov 69, 4; Hirst, 256, 258). Both the original circular and the redesigned final page are reproduced in Advertising Circular for The Innocents Abroad. See also 10 May 69 to Redpath, n. 1.
