One of a group of uncatalogued drawings entered in inventory in 1976. FFJ is almost certain that these were brought in by Prof. Mather when clearing out his house in Washington Crossing; selection and processing impossible at the time (Platt Collection being dealt with, for one thing); group must have lost its identifying label.
