I agree with Jayanand, brilliant work all.

Bill, the cover is pure HCB. The portfolio is fascinating.

There is an amazing commonality between Bill's Thanksgiving 1962, and a 
picture that Willy Ronis took a decade earlier, different angle but... 
The following link is to an over-light version of it:

I look forward to getting the hard copy in a few days.

All the best,

Peter
