victory garden photographs

---

Dear CG folks,

I know I've seen a photo of a victory garden on the Washington DC mall.  Anyone know how to track this photo down and/or other great victory garden photos?  They will be included in the opening ceremony exhibit for the WWII monument this May, per the email below.  please respond directly to simonsb@si.edu.

thanks,

judy tiger, washington dc

Judy -- I am working on the Victory Garden for the WW II Reunion.  Your email to John Franklin  (12/15/03) was given to me and I had a question about the archival photo of a victory garden on the Mall that you mentioned.  Do you know when it might have been taken?  Or who took it?  Where did you see it?  Any help you can pass on would be appreciated...thank you.
