This envelope contains a glass oval portrait of a woman in a large black dress seated in a red plush chair at a red-draped table. The portrait is in a soft velveteen frame, the back of which reads "Miss Evelyn Wolcott." It seems likely that Miss Wolcott was the donor, not the subject of this portrait.

In this recording Pat Gotchall describes her friendship with Evelyn Wolcott during her college and graduate school years.
