DescriptionThis photograph appeared in "The Woman's National Daily" on December 15, 1910, with another of Edward Gardner Lewis' promotion ideas called the League's Christmas Tree. Vases, statues and other items produced by the artists and honor students, and even Lewis himself, were valued as "units," wrapped and marked. Each "unit" was equal to $10 in subscriptions submitted to the American Woman's League. Items on the table include many of George Julian Zolnay's sculpture reproductions, and some of honor student Caroline Risque's sculptures of children.
