signed and numbered 2/375 by fuller in pencil on the title page. By incorporating art, science, history, and the past, present and the future, Fuller attempted to explain the structure of the universe in Tetrascroll. In typical Fuller manner, this was sparked from a nightly retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears to his daughter, Allegra, in which, through alterations of the events, he 'became convinced that through imagined expansion of the recallable inventory of fundamental experiences of the child, achieved through description of analogous experiences of others, altered only in magnitude and always similar in principle to the child's experience recalls, it would be possible to effectively induce that child's discovery of the most complex and profound phenomena'--from the Introduction; Sparks BF 1-26.
