One is captioned “GROUP PORTRAIT of A Member of the Emblem Club and A Member of the Bend Commercial Club” over a signature line signed in ink; the other “A RECEPTION COMMITTEE” over a photograph of twelve men beside a railroad track.

    "summary": "Two leaves of an unidentified printed item, each carrying the emblem in both bottom corners, in the construction of the 1912 advertisement.",
    "findings": [
      "Each leaf carries a BEND disc in both bottom corners, so the item used the emblem as a page ornament rather than once as a mark.",
      "The first leaf is captioned “GROUP PORTRAIT of A Member of the Emblem Club and A Member of the Bend Commercial Club” over a ruled signature line signed in ink.",
      "The second leaf is captioned “A RECEPTION COMMITTEE” over a photograph of twelve men beside a railroad track.",
      "The two leaves share size, stock and layout and are treated here as one item.",
      "The drawing reads as the 1912 cut: capital N running the ordinary way, notched B, three-armed E, broad letters running to a single ring, flat terminals, corners turning to points, last letter tapering.",
      "It is the largest and sharpest club-era rendering of the emblem this project holds outside the newspaper impressions."
    ],
    "limitations": [
      "Undated, unnamed and unattributed. Nothing in the video, and nothing else located, says what the printed item is.",
      "The reception committee beside a railroad track suggests Railroad Day, 5 October 1911, which is the date of the Bend Park Company brochure this project has been looking for. That is a resemblance and not evidence, and no date is claimed from it.",
      "The letters are read from a 1280 by 720 video frame of a print, and the drawing is outlined rather than solid. Corner form and the last letter's foot are read at medium confidence for that reason.",
      "The ink signature is read as Clyde M. McKay and the person is not identified here."

      "The first reads GROUP PORTRAIT / of / A Member of the Emblem Club and / A Member of the Bend Commercial Club, over a ruled line signed in ink. The signature is legible enough to read as Clyde M. McKay and is not further identified here. The second reads A RECEPTION COMMITTEE, under a photograph of twelve men in hats standing on rock beside a railroad track.",
      "Nothing in the archive names this item. It is not the 1913 book, whose full text is transcribed here and which carries neither caption. Its two leaves are the same size, the same stock and the same layout, so they are almost certainly from one publication; what the publication is, who printed it and when are all open. A reception committee photographed beside a railroad track invites one obvious guess about which reception, and a guess is what it stays.",
      "The drawing is the find. At this size the corners come to points, the last letter tapers, the E has three arms and the B's bowls meet in a notch — which is the construction of the 1912 advertisement, printed on something the club itself handed out."
