Title: Motorcycle Tortoise and the Hare 

Date: Unknown 

Dimensions: 8.5” x 11” 

Cost: $15.00 from Adam Rhine 

Date Purchased: March 3, 2003 

Description: The print depicts a pen drawing of the tortoise and the hare. The hare rests by a tree while reading a newspaper with the headline “Hare Favored to Win Race”.
