Announcement: Photo exhibit in Akron, OH



Hi all!

Just wanted to pass along the information about the exhibit I've been
working on & asking for advice on. :)

        Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens gives visitors a rare opportunity to
explore a visual time capsule. Amateur photographer, Willard Penfield
Seiberling, son of Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company co-founder F.A.
Seiberling, provided a unique perspective of life in Northeast Ohio back in
the early 1900s. These historic black-and-white photographs, never before
seen by the public and only recently developed, are revealed in a new
exhibition at Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens entitled "Reflections On Glass:
The Photography of Willard Penfield Seiberling." This highly anticipated
exhibition of historic photographs runs from September 8, 2001 to March 31,
2002.
        For more information, contact Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens at
330-836-5533.

For anyone who was on the listserv about a year ago, most of the photographs
in this exhibit come from our glass plate negative collection that I've been
working on cataloging. :)
