Eddy C. Pound looks at smudges that resemble Uncle Remus characters

February 18, 1940

Handwritten on back, "Eddy C. Pound - grandson of Mrs. W.C. Champlin, hostess of "The Wren's Nest" - Atlanta, ga. The shadow figures on the archway in the hall of "the Wren Nest" - caused by rain stain that seeped through during the heavy summer rains - one may clearly distinguish the figures beginning on left - a bear with a possum on his back in the center of the group is a perfect mail box with Bre'er Rabbit perched on top, there on the right of this, there is the trunk of a tree with a squirrel running down towards the base - on the ceiling directly over this group - is the perfect like ness of Uncle Remus - I discovered these pictures and will vouch for the trueness of these facts - Hope to have the pleasure of showing them to you on your visit to us - Mrs. W.C. Champlin --"
