Physical Description

In the front of the clear sleeve is a black and white photocopy advertisement of Charles Pebworth's carved mahogany box with a metal relief interior at the Moody Gallery in Houston, Texas. Next to the advertisement is another black and white photocopy of the sculpture with information about the piece and other artwork of Charles Pebworth's at the Moody Gallery.

On the back of the clear sleeve is a color scan print-out collage of a photograph of Charles Pebworth working on a box sculpture, letter, and advertisement. The letter is from Charles Schorre, another artist that positively comments on Pebworth's sculpture boxes. The advertisement is underneath the letter and photograph, and only part of a black sculpture is visible. At the top right is "note from Charles Shorre, artist" in cursive and blue ink. Note: Schorre is misspelled in the handwritten note.
