- Summary
- Letter presumably sent to Hugh Stix and his wife Marguerite, as it was found among their correspondence and Longchamp requests to paint a couple of ceramicist Marguerite's "dishes."
Date is based on Longchamp's reference to an election, presumably the 1956 U.S. presidential election won by Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Illustrations include a woman with a rifle presiding over a turkey, a pumpkin, and other food items, a house lit up at night, and a man at a table with a crow on a plate. - Citation
