A vertically oriented sheet of tan paper features black and blue ink signatures, dates from late 1932, and a cursive poem. In the upper right, a small rectangular sketch depicts houses nestled among trees with dabs for leaves. Chronologically arranged script fills the center. At the base, the poem beginning "This Studio is a home for all" is accompanied by final signatures in the lower right, creating a dense record of visitors.
