Abstract

Versions of this exhibit designed by Jim Schnur appeared in the Poynter Library in the late 1990s, though they tended to be smaller in scale. The label copy shown here came from the first display of the expanded version of the exhibit that Schnur installed on 30 September 2003 in multiple display cases. Various iterations of this exhibit have occurred since then, often taking place at the beginning of the fall semester as an "eye-catcher." The photographic images shown illustrate a version of the exhibit as it existed during late 2013 and early 2014 after installation during the fall 2013 semester.
