    Description

    10 3/8" by 8 1/8" metal printing plate (very heavy) from the Macon Telegraph newspaper. The image shows Madame Soong Meiling, wife of  China Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek exiting a train in Macon, Georgia on June 26, 1943. Madame Soong was at the end of a three month diplomatic visit to the US when she arrived in Macon, where she had attended Wesleyan College as a student. Wesleyan gave her an honorary degree in 1943 and the visit to Macon was a very, very big deal, well documented by the local newspaper.
