Admin or Biographical History: One of six Loutrel Briggs drawings that Susan Epstein photocopied for HCF's archives. The drawings came to her from Mrs. Hill, whose husband, Mr. Billy Hill (Three Oaks Landscaping), was the main installer for Loutrel Briggs, according to Susan. The copies were made from the drawings he would have used in the field.
