More InformationMagazine published by Harvard University '1933 reunion committee to mark the 50th anniversary of the class of 1933. The article is written by Perry T. Rathbone, former Director of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. Rathbone recalls Moore's post-war reception in America, and their close friendship with Curt Valentin. In 1940 Rathbone organised the purchase of 'an early concrete carving' for the St Louis Museum. Rathbone also writes about a surprise meeting with Moore in 1958 during the 25th reunion of the 'Class of 33'. Moore was an honoree, and Rathbone was pleased to be able to accompany Moore and they became 'two tipsy celebrants'.
