Scope and content
FRAZ/13 consists of two boxes of partial galley proofs for the Loeb and Macmillan editions of the 'Fasti' of Ovid and related photographs, spanning the dates [1901?]-1926. The Loeb edition was well underway with proofs being reviewed when production stopped after reaching an agreement with Macmillan in 1926. Macmillan agreed to publish a 5 volume set with extensive notes and commentary; after two years had elapsed, Loeb agreed to publish a one volume edition as part of the Loeb Classical Library, using no more than 50 pages of notes from the Macmillan edition.
