General note
Description on back: Probably W. B. J.'s office, L to R ?, ?, Erskine Ramsey*, W. B. J., Sam Fieldman*, Dr. C. B. Glenn*. *Museum regents, by Hazel P. Jones, who knew them all - Doug Jones, July 2008. W. B. J. got lots of money from Ramsay (note his "Ramsey Clan" tie, a gift from E. R.), D. E. Jones, 7-2008. My guess is that the mtg here is at the "First Building" [current visitor reception structure] at Moundville Archaeological Park. The presence of Erskine Ramsay & Sam Friedman and the pot being held by Ramsay leads me to think that it's about 1947 & plans underway for Ramsay's new collections building, completed in 1948. D. E. Jones, 3-17-2007.
