Grand Procrastination

This simple bronze plaque honoring the work of John Steinbeck was sculptured in 1938 by William Gordon Huff. It was dedicated that same year by noted Western historian Dr. Charles L.

It took 47 years, however, to get around to mounting it. Credo Quia Absurdum.

Rededicated and mounted at last on this 13th day of July, 1985
