The text reads as follows: "... and if you don't know much about music but you really like a tune you can HUM, then now is high time to HUM -instructions- Detach a paper, lick lips, bend paper across its longest part, attach to both sprongs of comb between and HUM. If you run out of paper or don't have a comb, take one of those candy boxes which have a large cellophane transparency, bend one end very slightly, blow and HUM. And when you don't have any of these go right ahead and HUM. In genuine expression, HUM can be done by any number of people. Bob Sheff, Ann Arbor, 1965."

The image shows a piece of paper with typewritten text and some portions highlighted by pieces of clear tape. The text is a playful set of instructions and encouragements about humming. It begins with an incomplete sentence ending in "you can HUM," leading to a section titled "HUM" with the subtitle "instructions." The instructions suggest detaching a piece of paper, licking lips, bending the paper across its longest part, and attaching both ends to the "sprongs" of a comb to create a humming instrument. It also offers an alternative for when a person runs out of paper or lacks a comb, suggesting the use of a candy box with a large cellophane part that can be bent and blown into to make a hum. The final advice is simply to go ahead and hum without any tools if none are available. A small text portion on the right side emphasizes that humming is for anyone, anywhere, anytime. At the bottom right, there is a concluding remark in a different font that says, "In genuine expression, HUM can be done by any number of people." Below this statement is a signature "Bob Sheff, Ann Arbor, 1965."

The instructions say to detach a strip of paper, lick your lips, bend the paper across its longest part, attach it to both prongs of a comb between, and hum.

When you don't have any of these options, just go right ahead and hum.
