Artifact Overview
Henry Ford began large-scale collecting of historic items in the early 1920s. When his plans for a museum became public, offers of additional material poured into his office. Ford posed for this 1928 photo with two men who helped manage the flood: secretary Frank Campsall (left), who responded to offers, and attorney Charles Newton (center), who handled the legal transactions.
