TMP 60th Birthday Exhibit

"Hi, guys - I have a special birthday coming up and I'm not going to ignore it. I'm also not holding my breath for presents or acknowledgements, but I would like to invite you to participate in an art project with me: please tell me one of your favorite pieces of art, as well as a sentence or two about why it is meaningful to you. I will then make an exhibit of all the favorites on The Digital Gallery, my art project, and that will be your gift to me! If you can send me your favorite by June 12th, that would be great." Sent by Tom Paper to friends, May 2022

Arrowsmith Atlas of 1812

This exhibit was put together by Ken Habeeb and Tom Paper when Ken had a map whose origin he did not know. Ken presented about his map, the one Tom Paper found at Rumsey, which is the Arrowsmith map, as well as the 1804 Wilkinson map, also from Rumsey, that has far more information on it. Ken spoke about both of these maps in his presentation on February 5, 2022 to the Bay Area Map Group.Rumseykeywords: khabeeb
