The lantern slide was made by the John Haworth Company, 1020 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, PA using a slide manufactured by Eastman Kodak. Glass negative MD056028 was the source image for this lantern slide. This image appeared in the American Institute of Architects (author), The Year Book of the Annual Architectural Exhibition Held by the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Institute of Architects and the T-Square Club of Philadelphia (Philadelphia: 1915). Although the caption there would seem to indicate that Michael Jenkins was the owner of Edgewood, he was only responsible for commissioning the landscape design and installation.
