The artist signs "Curt Swan" to the right of the "S". Bugs Bunny is drawn by Freleng below and to the left of Superman, and Snoopy sits in the lower left corner, opposite Superman. Snoopy is drawn head only with "Schulz" having signed under the neck. Freleng signs in full to the lower fright of Bugs. To his left Walker has drawn Beetle Bailey and signed boldly to the right. Smokey, wearing his "Smokey" hat holds down the upper left corner, signed in full under the bear's face by Wendelin, and between the bear and Superman, Ketchum has drawn his lovable Dennis the Menace and signed in full below his character's face. On the bottom of the sheet, Bil Keane has drawn Billy, from the Family Circus.

In 1932, she was discovered by Lord & Taylor, the first store to sell her garments. Later that year, she opened her own couture salon on East 61st Street in New York.  Her designs were popular among socialites.  In 1943, she designed Flying Fortress uniforms for women workers at Boeing Airlines.

		The image shows the future playwright in full length profile, sitting on a rock, with pad and pencil as if he is about to sketch or write. He sits near a lake with a house visible at the lake's edge. The photo has been cropped at the top. On verso, docketed in pencil, are notations for further cutting of the image to remove unwanted margins from the central focus of a charming portrait of O'Neill as a boy. The docketing reads, "Eugene O'Neill 25 years ago." The photographer's stamp shows upside down at the top edge indicating to whom credit should be given when reproductions would be made. The photographer is Nickolas Muray (1892-1965) who had made other images of O'Neill as an adult.  On the black bordered visiting card, O&#x92;Neill has crossed out his printed name and written his full name below

		He writes to Mr. Schellens. "Life is so busy now with all kinds of things to bother, advice and visitors, one wished to live on an uninhabited island with a lovely climate....making art for the glory of God alone...With my painful leg I'm teased all the days by people with their troubles...God wants it and my works get more and more deepened, and I am very busy just for Him...All those reproductions and photos are nothing compared to the original drawing. Such a work cannot be reproduced properly, unless such a reproduction was made in Berlin before the war...The Dutch reproductions these days are rubbish. This summer (August) I have made 3 nice drawings...Willem Dreesman from Amsterdam has...many of my works...my great 'Pilgrim,' and he bought the other day at Kleykamp that large &#91;one] with green grapes...I have just drawn a 'spicy' Christ in colors...and now Dreesman gets it. Everybody loves it. I have had it photographed, but such a cold photo is nothing compared to the drawing in colors...You should see it before it goes on tour...I would like to draw your children...You ask me how much time it takes. I have to have the child pose for me at least 4 or 5 times...each sitting lasts 1 1/2 to 2 hours...." He signs, "Jan Toorop."
