Jerry's words (in 2015) about this painting:
"I was at my grandma's house
Adela Hurst which is married to Hazen Rego Hurst
around 30 years ago doing some chores for her...
"One time I was fixing her washer and dryer and toilet
when I got that all done she sat me down.
When she was feeding me dinner and while I was eating
she went downstairs and brought this picture back up,
she said was given to my grandpa Hazen Hurst on his 14th birthday
by Frederick William Hurst his grandpa.
"...The picture is painted on the book cover..."
of the book Appleton's Physical Geography.
