Photograph of a woman named Jeannette Orel looking at two paintings, one made by a chimpanzee named Betsy, and the other made by a donkey named Jack. «Jeannette Orel is having a little trouble trying to tell the monkey from the burro. The painting at the left was done by ‘Betsy' a chimpanzee at the Baltimore zoo about a year ago. The one at the right was ‘finished' two weeks ago when a burro named Jack got into the act at the same zoo. Betsy used her fingers for her effort valued at $60, while Jack evened things up, getting the same price for swishing his paint loaded tail at the canvas. Both paintings are on display at the Hatfield Galleries for one week and are sponsored by Zoo-Lie Gifts, Inc.» --from text on recto.
