Inscription reads For George, with much affection--Devotedly, Daniel W. Hicky Atlanta: March 15, 1953. (signature in a different color ink as apparently the first pen was running out of ink). Daniel Whitehead Hicky (b December 6, 1900 Social Circle, Ga. - d July 17, 1976 Atlanta, Ga.) was an American poet and one of the most widely published poets in America during his prime. In addition to his six published books; "Bright Harbor" (1932), "Thirteen Sonnets For Georgia" (1933), "Call Back The Spring" (1935), "Wild Heron" (1940), "Never The Nightingale" (1951), and "The Poems of Daniel Whitehead Hicky" (1975), his work was regularly published in the national magazines, newspapers, and periodicals including The Saturday Evening Post, Harper's Magazine, The Atlanta Constitution, The North American Review, The New York Times, Cosmopolitan Magazine, New York Herald-Tribune, and others. He also wrote a column for the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, "As I Was Saying", discussing news, events and gossip from the local country clubs such as Piedmont Driving Club and Capitol City Club. And he gave lectures and readings of his poems throughout the South and Eastern USA at various colleges, clubs, and poetry societies. He was president of the Atlanta Writers Club for two years, and for many years was considered for Poet Laureate of Georgia. In 1931, he won the American Poetry Society's prize for his poem, "Machines". Athos Menaboni (1895 - 1990) was born in 1895 in the Italian port city of Livorno. As a result of his ship-supplier father's bringing home exotic animals from clients around the world, young Athos developed the lifelong fascination with birds and other animals, which later became the subjects of his paintings. At the age of nine, he began a formal study of art with private teachers. He later attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence. After serving in Italy's armed forces during World War I, Menaboni left home with a job on an American freighter and immigrated to the United States in 1921, eventually becoming an American citizen in 1936. By 1927, he was living in Atlanta, Georgia. During the next decade, he was hired by architect Philip Shutze to execute decorative painting at the Swan House (now a house museum at the Atlanta History Center) and in several other residences, as well as in public buildings. Other early commissions included restoration work on Atlanta's Cyclorama. During this period, he also earned money painting landscapes and seascapes. For the first year in Atlanta, Menaboni lived in a Peachtree Street boarding house owned by an uncle of his future wife. It was here he met Sara Regina Arnold, of Rome, Georgia, whom he married in 1928. In 1937, Menaboni returned to his childhood interest in birds. From then on, he steadily refined aspects of the art for which he is now famous - naturalistic oil paintings of birds. He developed a technique that used turpentine to thin the oil in order to paint in layers on paper and give the feathers translucency, detail, and depth. Among the poems included are: Nocturne: Georgia Coast, At the Symphony, Island Fishermen: St. Simon's, Harbor Night, Georgia Summer, Summertime Hill, Sea Captain, Battlefield, Snow Hill, Hyacinths, Taormina.
