I was pleasantly surprised yesterday upon receiving a thoughtful email from none other than Kim Powers, star of Wednesday's post about his novel, Capote in Kansas.
Kim was kind enough to enclose some photographs of the real snakeboxes that Capote constructed toward the end of his life. He found these pictures in the online catalogue of Bonham's, the auction house which is selling some of Capote's things.
Hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Wow, they are way cooler than I would have imagined while reading the book Capote in Kansas!
Wow, thanks for posting these. They look very different than I'd imagined. Much...prettier!
I was curious about these! Thanks for posting the pics!

I am just now finishing the novel and seeing these is absolutely fabulous. Thank you so much for sharing!
Fascinating. Makes you wonder what was going through his mind when he was doing that.
It's interesting to see them. I thought they would be much more complicated. What's on the inside?
