The headline of the article reads:
Fine Arts Museum Gets Hoyt Collection of Oriental Pottery
The article reports that following the recent death of wealthy art collector Charles Hoyt, his will bequeathed his “matchless collection of early Chinese and Korean pottery and porcelain” to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. The article notes that the collection, which had been on loan exhibition for 20 years at Harvard University’s Fogg Art Museum, was being rapidly packed and delivered to the Boston Museum — within one day of the will’s filing — in a “quickest moving job on record.”
An additional concern mentioned is the legal delay in “allowing” the will, which may take months, leaving the Boston Museum with a temporary “storage” problem for the more than 1000 rare vases, bowls, and statues.
At the bottom of the clipping, there is a brief unrelated historical note:
“The first centralized industry was in New Amsterdam, on Manhattan, where handmade glassware was manufactured continuously from 1645 to 1767.”
Handwritten on the clipping in red ink is the marking “128F”, likely an archival or cataloging number.
The entire item is presented on a neutral gray background, suggesting it is a preserved historical document, possibly part of a museum or library collection. The paper shows signs of aging but remains legible.

"Fine Arts Museum Gets Hoyt Collection of Oriental Pottery
One of the quickest moving jobs on record followed the revelation, through filing of the will of the late Charles Hoyt, last Wednesday, that the wealthy art collector had bequeathed his matchless collection of early Chinese and Korean pottery and porcelain to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
The Fogg Art Museum of Harvard University, where more than 1000 rare vases, bowls and statues has been 'on loan exhibition' for the past 20 years, started packing them and by noon yesterday morning had delivered them to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
Since the will has only been filled, and legal requirements are not completed until the will is 'allowed,' a process that often requires months, the Boston Museum will have a 'storage' problem.
The first centralized industry was in New Amsterdam, on Manhattan, where handmade glassware was manufactured continuously from 1645 to 1767."
