Commentary
First published in Marinetti 1992: 693 f. (no. 2). Autopsied by Stefan Schumacher in 1992. Currently untraceable.
Image in Marinetti 1992: Fig. 1,2 (drawing = LIR = MLR), Schumacher 2004: Taf. 3,6 (drawing).
Length of the remains about 5 cm. Marinetti's and Schumacher's drawings agree widely. The first letter, damaged by the breaking edge, is conceivably Alpha. The Y-shape (with seriph?) following it may be identified as (cp. PU-5 and PU-11). If the next two characters are read as Mu and Nu (the latter with shortened hasta), they are both turned against writing direction: 
. Marchesini interprets the entire group as one letter Mu, which was written against writing direction, the corrected by adding the bars again on the left. One way or another, a Mu must be in there. Final Epsilon seems clear.
