To add to OP question: What about books that were sold by Deseret Book in the past, say the 50's and 60'S. Likewise the sale of books ETB publicly endorsed like "The Black Hammer", that he wrote the forward for. It is one of the most racist hate filled books I've ever seen and/or read. The cover alone presents a most damning image.
http://sainesburyproject.com/mormonstuff/The%20Black%20HammerBtw, a physical copy of this book is extremely hard to locate or even find a library or reseller reference for. Clearly there has been a significant effort to remove all copies of it And wipe any knowledge of its existence out - perhaps by TSCC. I try to verify my research as best I can with multiple sources - ideally down to scanned images. But this was so over the top that I wanted to see a real copy.
"I can testify to the existence of "The Black Hammer" as I obtained a copy of it through an inter library loan and have seen it with my own 'natural' eyes and handled it with my physical hands. I opened it and the lettering looked to be 'times Roman' font and the words were hateful in the most crystal clear of venomous language. I read it and the truth of ETB's rascism and vile beliefs were unambiguous." I 'electronically sign' this testimony with my own finger on my own keyboard. Mannaz.
A collection of scans of all these types of ETB books & documents should never be allowed to fade and disappear. Likewise the subsequent quoting or references of these by others who have been members of the 15.
