I bought this old pencil sketch of a farmer with his hands on his hips shortly after I purchased the unpublished manuscript of Don Keehan, Marshall of Manchon from the estate of John Steinbeck. Everyone in the Cervantes Society assumed that Stanford University was the winning bidder, but the head of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese Literature at Stanford is a member of that Society, so they soon learned they were wrong. When you come to Austin for our little soiree on Tues/Wed, April 5-6, I’ll make the same presentation to you that I made to them. Prepare to be astounded, amazed, impressed, and entertained.
