"Perusal of the following lines in William Randolph Hearst's newspaper, the San Francisco Call-Bulletin, was the inspiration for the printing of these verses: "Topping the nation for success in carrying out our President Roosevelt's recovery program, California is now forty per cent recovered from economic distress and will go over the top by early spring, it was declared today by George Creel, state chairman of National Emergency Council."--Dated: December Thirtieth, Nineteen Hundred Thirty-three. This tribute to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was done by John Henry Nash of San Francisco to let our great leader know that the major art of printing has recovered. 1934."--Colophon.

Gift of John Henry Nash, January 20, 1934.
