the handling is in your hands

the handling is in your hands

This horizontally oriented composition is basically seven lines of copy on a predominately white background. There is a vertical red band of color about 1/8 from the top of the composition, and a little less from the bottom. The width of the band is a little less than 1/4 of the composition. The upper half of the composition has four lines of verse in pale blue. The first line, "but the", the second line, which is backwards and upside down is "handling." The third line, also backwards and upside down is " is in your," and the last line is "hands". The verse below the blue verse is stacked into three lines all in red except where the letters over lap the red band and then the letters are in white. The verse is "HUMBLE, RESEARCH WORKS, WONDERS WITH OIL."

inscribed: but the / handling / is in your / hands / HUMBLE / RESEARCH WORKS / WONDERS WITH OIL
