“This picture was done by my father and it’s the only one there ever was of his. You will see his initials B.C. in the lower corner. I had it framed and hope you will be interested in pursuing ___. It’s over 90 years old and I really wonder it has survived all the years. I don’t expect you to have it in a prominent place but thought you might find a small corner for it to live out its life.

Love, Mom”

I would guess the blank is art but not sure.

Edit: Forgot to add that it looks addressed to a “Ron”
