Correspondence between E.G. Liebold and Hermann Lemp regarding Light's Golden Jubilee Banquet Painting, 1936

In the mid-1930s, more than six years after the Light's Golden Jubilee celebration, Henry Ford commissioned a panoramic painting of that evening's banquet. Letters were sent to attendees asking them to indicate on an enclosed diagram where they sat and for a photograph so that their image could be included in the painting. Hermann Lemp complied and added his personal recollections of that evening's events.
