Levy Modern Art Collection To Go to 15 U.S. Museums
The article describes how a collection of 35 modern art paintings, valued at $1,500,000, is being distributed among 15 U.S. museums. The collection was assembled by Adele R. Levy, whose daughter, Mrs. Levy (formerly Miss Deborah of Greenwich), is mentioned as the executor. The article lists the museums receiving the art, including the Whitney Museum, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Art Institute of Chicago. It also notes that Mrs. Levy, an artist and collector, died in March 1960.

This clipping, from a newspaper in Nashua, N.H., features a column titled:
F.H.D.’s AROUND THE TOWN
The main article is titled:
Recalls Prank Played by Ex-Nashua Rector
It recounts a humorous and historically curious incident from 1900 involving Rev. Reamer Kline, formerly rector of the Good Shepherd Church in Nashua. The article describes how Kline had a prank involving an old manuscript purportedly from the Apostle Paul — which was later identified as a forgery — placed in a Bible during a church service. The prank was part of a scholarly hoax related to the discovery of the “Patridge Fragment,” which Kline had sent to a Boston museum. The article details how the hoax was eventually uncovered, thanks to an analysis that revealed the ink was modern and used only on the outer edges of the manuscript.
The column also includes brief local gossip under the heading “GIRLS AND ENDS...” and mentions local figures including Bob Harvey and F.F. Murphy.
Overall Impression:
The image captures a personal or historical archive of press clippings from mid-20th century New England, preserved with care. The juxtaposition of a major art donation and a small-town ecclesiastical prank suggests someone with diverse interests — perhaps an art enthusiast or a local historian — collecting noteworthy news from their region. The handwritten notes add a personal, archival touch.
This image appears to be a scanned page from a newspaper or a similar publication, dated from June 11, 1962, and June 12, 1962. The content of the page includes two articles.
The first article, titled "Levy Modern Art Collection To Go to 15 U.S. Museums," discusses the distribution of a modern art collection valued at $1,500,000 among 15 museums in the United States. It mentions the Adele R. Levy Fund, Inc., and highlights the works of artists such as Matisse, Braque, Manet, Degas, Seurat, and others. The article also mentions the beneficiaries of the gift, including museums and educational institutions in various cities across the U.S.
The second article, titled "F.H.D's AROUND the TOWN," recounts a prank played by a former Nashua Rector, Rev. Reamer Kline, at the Nashua Episcopal Church. The article narrates how Kline and a classmate created a fake manuscript fragment in the early 1930s, which was believed to be an ancient manuscript by some scholars. The article provides details about the prank, including the materials used, the reaction of the scholars involved, and the eventual revelation of the deception.
Both articles are accompanied by typewritten notes or labels at the top, possibly indicating the source of the articles (New England Newsclip Agency, Inc.) and the date of the clipping.

The image you've provided shows a scan of an open newspaper that appears to be vintage, given its sepia-toned coloring which could denote age or be due to the scanning process. The newspaper is titled "NEW ENGLAND / NEW YORK" and is dated "JUN 12 1982." On the left page, there is an article with the headline "Levy Modern Art Collection To Go to 15 U.S. Museums," describing the distribution of an art collection by the late Alain Levy. On the right page, there are sections with smaller articles; the main headline here reads "AROUND the TOWN" and there's a notable heading "F.H.D's" which recalls a prank played by an ex-Nashua rector.
The newspaper is laid flat, and its edges appear slightly worn, indicating some level of handling over time. The book or binder in which this newspaper is contained has a black cover, visible on the left edge of the image. The page on the left is anchored down by what could be the inside cover of the book, while the rest of the visible page seems to be exposed to air on the edges indicating that this is just one of the pages rather than a cover or outer layer.
The image shows an open scrapbook or album with two newspaper clippings pasted on a yellowed page.
The clipping on the left is titled "Levy Modern Art Collection To Go to 15 U.S. Museums" and discusses the distribution of a modern art collection valued at $1,500,000. The collection, amassed by Adele R. Levy Fund, Inc., of which Richard E. Deutsch is president, includes paintings by notable artists like Degas, Seurat, Cézanne, Utrillo, Corot, Renoir, and Rousseau, among others. The article mentions that some of the gifts to museums are to help museums outside the major eastern seaboard cities, and lists many museums which will receive works from the collection.
The clipping on the right is from a section titled "F.H.D.'s AROUND the TOWN" and is about a prank played by Rev Reamer Kline, former rector of Good Shepherd Church and ex-Nashua rector. The article recalls an incident at Bishop Nashua High School in 1956 involving a prank with a forged manuscript page said to be from the Latin Vulgate Bible. It notes the involvement of a group of youngsters with athletic talent at the time, discusses the mystery and notoriety of "The Partridge Fragment," and ends mentioning the rector's personality and the lasting impression he left.
Both clippings have newspaper agency labels at the top dated June 11 and June 12, 1962, respectively, from various New England news agencies. The newspaper text is printed with a serif font, and the scrapbook page is aged with slight yellowing and some worn edges.
