Additional Details
Notes: Affixed to the verso is a poem by Jennie L. H. Giddings:
"Sometimes emerald, sometimes blue;
But always calling, calling you-
Beautiful Bay of Avalon.
It ripples and rolls, on its pebbly shore
It dimples, and sparkles, and calls once more-
Beautiful Bay of Avalon.
Oh the emerald and the blue;
Oh this beckoning and calling you-
Who can resist, and who wants to?
Beautiful Bay of Avalon"

Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
