[12] pp. "Art Brut" drawings and irrational writings done on six sheets of coarse brown paper towels. Folded once down middle, as issued. There seems to be very little known about Princess Winifred and most of the information there is is unverifiable. What is certain is that she was an inmate in a mental asylum (either Buyberry near Baltimore or Byberry in Philadelphia) and created her work, drawings and random writings, on brown paper hand towels during the 1940s through to the 1960s. Her true name, birth, death and nationality all appear to be unknown. From SMS: A Collection of Multiples, No. 4, August 1968.
