Inscriptions

"To Norman Kent from Jim--It's big Norm, but is it any good! I don't like it, and I hope some day to re-work it. For right now it seems a waste of this lovely Jap. etching paper-- of which my supply is very low--small prints now, for the duration--anyway, ots fun using multiple on plank gum, only with the grain. J.D.H."
