Dylan earliest known signature (bob zimernam?:???

This is from a Dylan high school essay in Rolfmans class.Dylan considers rolfman (SP?) his primary educator influence ("he taught me a lot...") This is from a 22 page essay "does steinbeck emphasize with his charcters?" Like Woody Guthrie to come, Steinbeck had an early "grip" on Dylan. This essay came from a classmate Dylan had lent it to so ey could crib it in time for another teachers class paper. He nev4r got it back to Dylan hence able to sell to me.

With early influence by Stienbeck and Woody Guthrie, no wonder he won the Nobel in Literature!

Yeah, thanks. I ended up corresponding with Rolfgen by mail -he did alot of artwork in his letter and told different stories of Zimmermann.

I was introduced to him by owners of a place called "Zimmys" in Hibbing MN (now closed) who had the desk that Rolfgen used to teach- as Dylan said-"he taught me alot"
