              <text>The front of this yellow party invitation shows an inked drawing of a shirtless man dancing waist-deep in water. The back has printed letters, announcing that the BYOB potluck would be held in the back of the Olmos Park Basin, near Trinity University. On the back, David Matias wrote two phrases: “Crying out for help…my subltey…You never heard the Scream!!” [sic] and “dancing behind you, watch you opperrate.” [sic] While the party happened a year after David graduated from Trinity, it may reflect his San Antonio social circles. During graduate school, David likely spent the summers with his family in Kerrville and visited nearby San Antonio.</text>
