An unlabeled prototype, made by George Maciunas, of the edition later produced by him in various wooden boxes (see M26394). Brecht was apparently unhappy with the compartmentalized realization; it is, in the end, perhaps more typical of Maciunas than of Brecht.
box: 33 x 22 x 5.8 cm (13 x 8 11/16 x 2 5/16 in.)
