A print made from this cancelled block was featured on the cover of an invitation to a talk by Rockwell Kent to the Print Club of Rochester, on December 18th, 1933 at the Memorial Art Gallery. A copy of this invitation is in the Gallery's Archives. The print is oriented horizontally, rather than vertically, as shown in The Prints of Rockwell Kent: a catalog raisonné. An "Exhibition of Wood-blocks and Lithographs by Rockwell Kent" was held at the Gallery under the auspices of the Print Club of Rochester from Dec. 13, 1933 to Jan. 7, 1934.
