LBJMDB/RR: Recent donations

The Lyndon Baines Johnson Memorial Downstairs Bathroom/Reading Room has recently received two important donations that immeasurably enhance the collection and will be enjoyed by bathroom-goers for years to come

The first is a decorative plate, courtesy of the Susann Foundation, featuring a portrait of a dour-looking Lyndon surrounded by other equally dour-looking white men, with and without mustaches. We would like to express our gratitude to the Susann Foundation for its continued support of the LBJMDB/RR and especially to its director, Susann, for being such a nice and thoughtful person.

We would also like to thank the Institute of Katherine and William for its recent gift of postcards, brochures and a magnet obtained from the LBJ Ranch in Johnson City, Texas. We here at the LBJMDB/RR are particularly fond of the shot showing LBJ and Lady Bird reclining languidly amongst the wildflowers. Also, the magnet is pretty cool.
