Seward House receives donation
A second-floor gallery at the Seward House in Auburn can be better preserved this spring, thanks to a donation of archival matting and backing board from Nielson and Bainbridge. The makers of archival mats and frames gave 100 sheets of Alpharag mat and backing board to the museum, so staff and volunteers can unframe, remat and replace preservation materials in the diplomatic gallery.
The gallery - a collection of prints, engravings and photographs displayed on the museum's second floor - hung in Seward's Washington, D.C., home during his years as U.S. Secretary of State (1861-1869). Seward relocated the collection to Auburn upon his retirement.
