Scope and content
The May Queen and her court. Queen Erin Lombard is surrounded by the 26 members of her senior class, maid of honor Marilyn Wotton, flag bearer Eleanor Walker, and numerous kindergarten attendants as she reigns over the 1953 May Day festivities. Positioned on the giant steps in front of ivy-covered halls of Annie Wright Seminary, Queen Erin is seated on a flower bedecked rattan chair, her long train cascading down in front of her. The entire school would be present to honor the May Queen as well as alumnae and friends. It would be the final farewell to the school before graduation for the senior class and queen.
