I am keeping quite well and am very busy. I hope you both are well and enjoying life. Enclosed is information for ordering portraits and other items from the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute." The front of the card bears a lovely color portrait of Parks, who has signed and inscribed the image in black ink, "4/14/94, Rosa Parks, To Mr. & Mrs. Ken Browne." In fine condition.
