Scope and Content
An undated, handwritten card from James Acord to Janet Galore. The face of the card shows a picture by Ken Harris of the 13 April 1949 earthquake damage in Pioneer Square, Seattle, WA. Acord has added a note below the picture: "I remember this earthquake!"
The content of this card notes a book (that this likely accompanied) by "Wallace," possibly with "Infinity" in the title [I assume that this refers to "Infinite Jest" by David Foster Wallace]. Acord notes that he read it twice, but "couldn't follow it all" and notes that Wallace is "a good, though highly eccentric, writer". Acord also mentions Prof. Georg Canton.
