Dealer Notes
No. 60 of 225. Although some of those identified in the 1922 ‘Oxford’ edition of Seven Pillars of Wisdom appear under different names in the 1926 ‘Subscriber’s’ edition of the text, such as Obeid el Raashid or Seif, Hussein Mohammed Bagdaddis cannot be traced in either the 1922 text or the 1926 text of Seven Pillars of Wisdom, and his identity is not elucidated in any of the standard sources.
