This digital exhibit is a partnership between Independence National Historical Park and Temple University's Public History Program. Students in Hilary Iris Lowe's Studies in American Material Culture course (Fall 2014), including Mary O'Neill, Chelsea Reed, Lyell Funk, Stephen Bentel, Kelsey Miranda, and Sharron Scott worked with Independence's Chief Curator Karie Diethorn to research these objects as part of a semester-long project.e
