AI Notes

An opened bifold engraved graduation announcement mounted across the album page. On the left leaf, a small printed name card reading ‘Christopher Gaillard McEwan’ is tipped in at the center; the right leaf carries the printed text of the announcement in a classical serif type. Christopher Gaillard McEwan (b. 27 June 1942, Orange General Hospital, Orlando, Fla.) is a grandson of Amy FitzSimons and James Pickens Walker through their daughter (Nancy Walker McEwan). The announcement records his Spring 1968 graduation from the University of Florida College of Law in Gainesville. Engraving on cream stock; the printing trade convention for the surname renders the lowercase ‘c’ in ‘McEwan’ as a small superscript on the name card.
