Cartoon about Anne Brown Military Collection
Description
This is a cartoon of Anne Seddon Kinsolving Brown’s military collection. Anne's childhood passion for military uniform followed her through the honeymoon during which Anne Brown began collecting miniature lead soldiers from all over the world as well as books, prints, and drawings of military costumes of the 17th to 20th centuries. Her collection, so large that it caused structural damage to this house was transferred to the John Hay Library in 1982. She was able to see her legacy live on as the Anne S.K. Brown Military Collection before she died in 1985.
