University of South Florida Tampa Library still image eng Letter from Mrs. Anton Kleinoscheg in Graz, Austria, to Miss Grace Whitaker at Sarasota, Florida. The letter reads " . . . know. It is cast in plaster paris and framed in dark red plush. I think your Papa will tell how they are made. Miss Portner made first the portrait in wax - and from that the cast was taken - and from the cast the medallions are made; there were three - one for Miss P. and one for each of her two brothers but one brother died and when his trunks came home the Baronin was going to break up the third one - but Hildegarde wouldn't let her - She knows how much I'd like to have it. Someday I expect I'll show it to you! I don't think this is very much of a letter, but it will tell you that we are thinking about your birthday and wishing you many happy returns! I'm sorry we are too far off to help you eat your birthday cake - but I don't fear that it will grow stale from lack of consumers. Uncle Toni sends his love to all and so do I. You mustn't forget us dear Mother Bunch! Your loving Aunt Carrie." Letter from Mrs. Anton Kleinoscheg in Graz, Austria, to Miss Grace Whitaker at Sarasota, Florida. The letter reads " . . . know.
