 Item — Box 48: [Barcode: 31858072538667]
Identifier: CC-28028-29182

The poem object consists of a large wooden capital letter 'A' with one of its legs shortened and placed over a pile of lower case, cut-out, black paper letters and crosses. The letters 'u' & 'd' can be distinguish among others in this pile. Since the title of this work is "Lewd Woman Letter," the 'A' probably symbolizes adultress, as in "The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
