Default Kudos again

yes the numbers 12, 23 and 186 depict the more common variations, but still, what a keeper!

Not to sound anal David, but could you take photos of the frame that displayed this sheet? It looks as if it may be the original frame that Mendelsohn used to send these out to prospective purchasers--his ad for the m101-4 sheets anyway states it will come "framed with two-inch gumwood frame (without glass), ready for hanging ...". I'd like to know whatever information you can share about the frame, the manner the sheet was attached, the type of hanging (e.g., wire or center hinge/clasp), where and what size are the pencil notations, etc, so it can be compared to subsequent finds. I'm not trying to be an archaeologist, but these things come along so rarely that it would be nice to at least document whatever we can about the piece. Congrats again.
