Inscriptions Printed on applied label on mat recto, BC: Ken & Larry \ As a Buddy, you receive so much more than you could possibly give. I'm sure I changed the quality \ of Larry's life, but he changed the quality of mine too. And for two people who were so different to \ come together, like brothers, closer than friends - I'll never forget him, or the influence he had on my \ life. I loved him unconditionally, without any prejudices, and that's how he loved me. Ken, 1990
