TO THE BEST OF MY MEMORY A NEW YORK MAGAZINE OR PAPER PUBLISHED THIS REGARDING THE BIRTH OF THE DIONE QUINTETS
THE ILLUSTRATORS SIGNATURE APPEARS INTHE LOWER LEFT HAND CORNER OF IMAGE # 2
I WOULD TAKE IT OUT OF THE FRAME BUT I FEAR OF DAMAGING THE PAPER
I THINK THIS IS AN ACTUAL PAGE FROM THE ARTICLE
ANY INFORMATION REGARDING WHO THE ILLUSTRATOR IS AND WHO PUBLISHED IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED
THANKS
BILL

Amazing likness
I was not aware that they had the printing technology in 1934 that was depicted in my post
