Princeton Reunions

It is Princeton University Reunions Week and although Bill and I have stepped down from serving the Class of 1975 as Reunion Chairs, we have many friends we look forward to seeing on campus when it is alive with so much memorabilia, traditions, lectures and new buildings or advancements always. Here is a banner our class hangs and updates  on a campus site we are given for our major Reunions. The image is from an early post card remembering back to George Washington's days at Princeton and celebrating with oracle and physical competitions in his honor. The complete image had George Washington opposite the tiger and was found in the Seeley G. Mudd Library archives where student thesis work has been housed. I enlarged the image greatly, added two colors and had Humphry's Flag Company in Philadelphia sew the appliqued banner for us.
