"This book represents a partial reprinting of the classic 1980 publication Troughful of Pearls: Behold!!! The Protong [also represented in this sale]. It is but a small review of the science of ZERMATISM realized by Szukalski since 1940. The drawings herein were chosen from over 40,000 illustrations made for the ZERMATISM oeuvre, representing, in particular, some of the most important subjects as UNIVERSAL PICTOGRAPHY, the FLOOD SCUM-LINE, and ANTHROPOLOGICAL MOTIVATIONS." - Archives Szukalski.

"Researching the origins of language in an intensive study of pictography led to his discovery of what Szukalski called 'Protong,' short for 'Proto-tongue' or 'First Language'. In the book of Genesis, it is stated that 'There was once one language and one speech in the world.' Szukalski claimed that this speech was Protong, an archetypal language expressed in pictography and common to all cultures." - Ray Zone.
