Indiana University
With plans already underway for the celebration of Indiana University’s Sesquicentennial, in 1966 Benjamin H. Long (A.B. 1926) came forward with an interest in erecting a gateway in memory of his father and mother, Benjamin F. (Trustee from 1915-36) and Lucy Nichols Long who were both IU graduates. But the idea of erecting a portal was initiated by members of the Classes of 1899, 1900, 1901 and 1902 who established a University “Arch Fund” “for the construction of an arch over the Kirkwood Avenue entrance to the campus.”
Finally in the 1980s when the majority of the opposition to the proposal had quieted, long-time University director of scholarships and financial aid Edson Sample stepped forward to fund the Eggers and Higgins design of the early 1960s in honor of his parents, Louise Waite Sample and Kimsey Ownbey Sample Sr. The final completion of the Sample Gates was in 1987.

After an enjoyable meal of Bak Kut Teh in Singapore, we walked down the road to sample the last durians of the season.
The pieces for the exhibition Faith, hope & Love are ready. The book The unknown maker is in its final stages and therefore it is time to start something new.

Powdered synthetic dye samples collected by the Technicolor Motion Picture Corporation
1929-1975
Gift of John M. Andreas Estate
Since its inception in 1915, the Technicolor Motion Picture Corporation engaged its team of scientists in the search for a color scheme suitable to the projection of motion picture film. The researchers painstakingly worked to create a sophisticated dye-transter printing process, using many different combinations of dyes and dye solutions available from a number of international chemical companies.
The museum holds a magnificent set of 3,037 dye bottles collected by Technicolor over 45 years, during the heyday of the classical Hollywood era; a portion of those—1,788 to be exact—are on display here for the first time. Only a small number of these dyes were selected for the celebrated "look" of Technicolor films.
The Technicolor Corporate Archive was gifted to George Eastman Museum in 2009. The archive's notebooks, dye bottles, research files, cameras, and printing equipment supplemented the museum's existing holdings of vintage Technicolor cameras and film negatives. In addition, George Eastman Museum preserves the world's largest collection of original Technicolor 35mm film negatives, including the color separation negatives for Gone With the Wind and The Wizard of Oz, the latter of which is included in UNESCO's Memory of the World registry of cultural treasures.
