Abstract

The article explores the backing paper used in the Joseph Smith Papyri (JSP) Egyptian papyrus fragments in view of its historical, political and analytical aspects. The quality, dimensions, and writings of the JSP are examined in relation to certain points of time. The mounting of the papyrus fragments on the backing paper before the Egyptian artifacts reached Missouri, is also stressed.
