- Potok Collection copy inscribed "January 6, 1988. Dear Abi - What better way to celebrate the passage of time than with a man's humor you so love that both are like an old friend. Perhaps more time has been devoted to this project than you had intended but I hope that all the sweat and investment will turn into water off a duck's back tonight - as you sit and soak up with absolute delight the labor you've invested - sometimes with love & sometimes without. ENJOY!!! Enjoy it so much that when you look back on all the time spent to create what will happen tonight, you will enjoy that too. All my love, my hugs, and my kisses --- Naama. Happy Opening!
