As far as we can tell, the text says: "Take the picture for Wagner statue in San Francisco by Philip Lu in Fisherman's Wharf 29 / August 96 to memories it." All I asked him to do was sign it. (He left his address so I could send him copies of the photos. I said I would if he'd throw in a free (cardboard) frame. He declined. "If he wants to see those pix, he can bloody well get an Internet account," fumes W.)
