Inscriptions
  • AN INTERNATIONAL HIGH NOON DIVORCE
  • "Promptly at high noon the unhappy couple entered the court room to the soft strains of Hymn Twenty-three. The American wife, looking happy for the first time in many years, leaned on the arm of the family solicitor; she wore a lovely green going-away gown and bore a huge bouquet of incriminating affidavits; her train was carried by her minor child. Next in the divorce procession came the co-respondents, charmingly and in some cases daringly gowned. The husband was supported by his counsel, and swooned twice during the separation ceremony, which was performed beneath a monster floral ax, while a surpliced jury sang "My Boni Lies Over the Ocean," "How Can I Bear to Leave Thee," and other appropriate selections. After the ceremony the former wife's father gave a luncheon to the Count's creditors and arranged to pay them thirty cents on the dollar. The Count's gift to his former wife was a statement of his debts to date. Her gift to him was a tin can in a Tiffany setting. Miss Creesis will be at home after March 15."

Notes Tweaks made: lines, spots and other damage removed, cropped, text straightened a bit (had a couple funny curves that are likely bulges in the paper), levels adjusted. Image and text, for whatever reason, didn't match alignments that well, so I tweaked the relative rotations a little bit.
