Note: To further a long term research project I am
collecting data. When a piece such as this may be of
interest to others I have decided to share my notes prior
to culmination of the project. As such the attributions
are my own and may be different that the catalogue
attribution. Any additions, information, or corrections,
would be appreciated.
Thanks and best wishes,
J. Barry O'Connell Jr.
