AI Notes
Album page with two pieces of ephemera mounted on the left side. The upper half holds a plain pale envelope (empty, flap visible) labeled across the front in pencil. The lower half holds a small black-and-white snapshot photograph of four men standing in a row outdoors at a golf course, captioned in pencil beneath. The right two-thirds of the page is blank ruled paper. The golf club is Timuquana Country Club, Jacksonville, FL (founded 1921, designed by Donald Ross), although the writer’s spelling appears as ‘Timuaquana’.
The golf club is Timuquana Country Club, Jacksonville, FL — founded 1921, course designed by Donald Ross. The writer’s “Timuaquana” is an idiosyncratic spelling of the same name. J. P. Walker is James Pickens Walker, the compiler’s husband.
