Specialist Notes
“His craze for caps resulted in a heartfelt appeal to the use of the hat, a tug that the Mad Hatter would have liked and which produced a highly valuable leaflet for avid collectors who were relieved & struck by Thayahttite with the Florence straw tail for having dissipated, squandered, entropized, entire financial castles in a couple of ephemeral sheets. But I assure you it's worth it. Oh yes it's worth it. Either it's worth it or it smashes it. " (Echaurren)
