Researching “Son of Momus,” found an obscure book (only one holding listed in WorldCat) that might be marginally connected and seems interesting - The bureau of Negro oddities : containing all the popular jokes, dialogues, stories, repartees, lectures, interludes, conundrums, of the leading Ethiopian artists of the day / Author: Distinguished son of Momus.
