Item #26120 Riverbank Publications Synoptic Tables for the Star Cipher. William F. Friedman.

Riverbank Publications Synoptic Tables for the Star Cipher

Riverbank, Geneva Ill. Riverbank Laboratories Department of Ciphers 1918. First Thus. [28] pages Oblong 22x28.5 cm. No limitation stated. Stiff brown publisher's wraps with cover titles duplicating title page (as issued). Black cloth spine as issued. Fine. Wraps. [26120]


The last 26 pages comprise 'Synoptic Tables for the Star Cipher', which was also included at the end of Riverbank Publication No 20. This format may have been more useful due to the fact that each page has a table on front, and the rear is blank (the Appendix, presumably published earlier had tables front and back). A restricted publication not publically available when issued, it appears in institutional collections, but is rarely found on the market.. Authorship attribution from Galland.
