Description

Letter: A letter, in the form of a short poem or riddle, from Perry Worden to Thomas W. Temple II, ca. 1920s, without envelope. A cat drawn in the upper left corner contains the word, "Why" followed by the riddle text, which reads, "Why should one never perish in the Desert of Sahara? Because of the sandwich is there! And 'ere's your Sandwich dish!" It may be that this riddle accompanied a gift. From the Thomas Temple Collection, donated by Ruth Ann Michaelis. In good condition with some discoloration and stains on the edges and a crease on the top edge. None
