Title Original Drawing / Symetrical Male Figure
Notes Original drawing by the artist; seems to demonstrate the influence Merton had on Reinhardt, with the 2 crosses depicted in this drawing. This item is similar to a piece sold at the Woodward Gallery in New York City, from an exhibition of Reinhardt's drawings held on November 8 - December 27, 2008. This piece was brought to, and examined by, John Woodward (Gallery Director) on June 11, 2013. At that time, and with limited provenance accompanying the item, it was confirmed to most likely be an authentic drawing by Reinhardt - paper, size, style, signature and subject all conform with know articles, and especially those sold during the exhibition at the Woodward Gallery. 2008 exhibition documents and titles of all pieces displayed at that exhibition accompany this item, including images of the similar item to this one from that exhibition.

Title Dagboeknotities (1946-1952) uit Het Teken van Jona / manuscript
Notes Sof cover; Dutch language manuscript translation of "The Sign of Jonas" as translated by Stan Broos. The publication of the Dutch language book was never completed and Merton himself may have revealed why. Here is what Merton says in a letter to Fr Charles Dumont: "Thank you for your kind words about Jonas. It is a problematical book in the Order. Many have not liked it. I did not expect them to. Dom Leclercq thinks it will not be too well liked in Europe either. The Dutch publishers are afraid to bring out a translation. The book, they say, is not phlegmatic enough for Holland. In that case I shall have to resign myself to the loss of Holland, as I am not at all phlegmatic." Merton, Thomas; Hart, Patrick (1990-11-14). The School of Charity: The Letters Of Thomas Merton On Religious Renewal & Spiritual Direction (p. 67). Macmillan. Kindle Edition. Thank you to bibliographer Patricia Burton who passed along information on this text.
