SA: HIST: Inventor of "Space Agers"


Greetings.

Those unfamiliar with the origins of the "Space Age" irises, and of the man 
who coined the term should visit the HIPS page to see a photo of Lloyd 
Austin, and read his fascinating obituary. Here is the url for that 
particular portion of the page, the 'Notables."

http://www.worldiris.com/public_html/Notables/Notables_main.html

Select A for Austin. 

To new members of the list the Historic Iris Preservation Society extends a 
cordial invitation to visit our webpage, maintained as an act of love by our 
distinguished webmaster Mike Lowe. Unlike many webpages this one is ALWAYS 
under construction as Mike works to include interesting new material and 
improve the quality of the  materials already there.  It is an 
extraordinarily rich resource and we are very proud of it. There are articles 
from our journal ROOTS, a list of our Publications (Sales), a list of sources 
of historic irises, and innurmerable beautiful photos.

Membership information is included as well. We appeal to all sorts of folks; 
those of an historic bent, those of a nostalgic bent, those of a scientific 
bent, and anyone interested in understanding modern irises in their wider 
context.

Drop in anytime, the light is always on for you!
