This image displays a yellowed, aged newspaper clipping from the Boston Post, dated Wednesday, October 11, 1950. At the top of the clipping, the newspaper's masthead and date are printed in bold black ink. Above this, a narrow strip of paper (likely a filing or archival label) is taped or affixed, bearing handwritten red ink: “128-F”, along with a faint red underline.

The article itself is titled in bold, all-caps: “ARTIST HEINTZELMAN AT WOMEN’S CITY CLUB”.

The text reports that Arthur William Heintzelman, described as an “internationally known artist and gifted etcher,” was the guest of honor at a luncheon held at the Women’s City Club. The event featured tributes to him from art critics and prominent artists.

The article notes Heintzelman’s role as keeper of the famous Wiggin prints at the Boston Public Library.

Alice Dixon Bond presided over the event and introduced several speakers who praised Heintzelman’s work. These speakers included:

  • Miss Ruth Magurn, assistant curator of prints in the Fogg Art Museum;
  • Frederick H. Wight, associate director of the Institute of Contemporary Art;
  • Alice Lawton, art critic of the Boston Post;
  • Edgar J. Driscoll, Boston Globe;
  • Lawrence Dame, Boston Herald.

Several lines of text within the article have been hand-underline in red ink, drawing attention to specific names and affiliations, such as “Miss Ruth Magurn, assistant curator of prints in the Fogg Art Museum; Frederick H. Wight...”, and “Alice Lawton, art critic of the Boston Post; Edgar J. Driscoll, Boston Globe and Lawrence Dame, Boston Herald.”

The clipping appears to be a preserved historical document, likely part of an archive or personal collection, as suggested by the filing notation and handwritten markings. The paper shows signs of age — discoloration and slight creasing — and is photographed against a plain, neutral gray background.


In summary: This is a historical newspaper clipping recording a 1950 luncheon honoring artist Arthur William Heintzelman at Boston’s Women’s City Club, with notable figures in the Boston art world paying tribute to his work and legacy.
