The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The purpose of the Association was to purchase Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington, in order to restore the property and open the grounds to visitors and admirers who desired to see Washington's house and tomb. Ann Pamela Cunningham became interested in the preservation of Mount Vernon when her mother, traveling down the Potomac River in 1853, viewed the house in its neglected and dilapidated state and wrote to her daughter of its condition. Both women thought it shameful to allow the first President's home to fall into ruin. A determined Ann Pamela Cunningham assembled twenty-two like-minded women together to raise money to purchase the property, pay off all debt, and return the gardens and grounds to the condition in which they were left by Washington himself. John Augustine Washington III, George Washington's great-grandnephew and the owner of Mount Vernon at the time, delayed several years in selling the home to the Ladies' Association. He preferred a sale to the State of Virginia or the federal government, both of which declined purchase. In 1858 he finally agreed to sell Mount Vernon to Ann Pamela Cunningham and the MVLA for $200,000.","Today the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association is remembered as the first organization dedicated to historic preservation in the United States. The Association remains loyal to its original goals, the restoration and care of George Washington's Mount Vernon, while also opening the estate to visitors 365 days a year. Members of the MVLA continue under the structure designed by the first Ladies' who joined, operating as the Executive Board with one Regent and Vice Regents from different states. The estate now consists of not only the Mansion and tomb of Washington, but restored gardens, outbuildings, a Pioneer Farm, Gristmill, Distillery, museum and orientation center, National Library for the Study of George Washington, gift shops, food pavilion, and a restaurant.","Facsimile publication of Washington's copy of the Acts of Congress, 1789, made in commemoration of the Opening of the Fred W.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The report recommended the creation of a licensing department to help \"generate additional income and reduce the reliance on admission and related revenues.\" Beverly Addington was hired as the Director of Licensing and Product Development in early 1992. Her previous experience included working at the Smithsonian Institution. Her role was to coordinate with the librarian, the curator, and gift shop managers to research Mount Vernon's collections for potential museum reproduction pieces to sell in the shops. Ms. Addington also formed relationships with companies and manufacturers to use the name \"Mount Vernon\" on collections of paint, wallpapers, rugs, etc. with the estate receiving royalties from the sale of these products. The responsibilities for her position were described in the 1992 Minutes as: \"assessing the collection and finding potential objects; interviewing manufacturers and researching their strengths and weaknesses; creating sketches and designs; reviewing current markets and areas of special consumer interest; negotiating contracts and obtaining advance permissions; setting terms of license agreements; assessing prototypes, a most important decision-point; and marketing of finished items, which is the responsibility of the licensee.\" Ms. Addington continued in this role until 2016 when she retired. Throughout her 24 years as Director of Licensing, she negotiated contracts and agreements with multiple companies to produce furniture, textiles, china, jewelry, and many other items inspired by Mount Vernon's collections, or the Mansion and grounds. After her retirement, the licensing program was absorbed into the estate's retail operations.","Other records pertaining to the licensing program at Mount Vernon may be found in the following collections: Council Minutes of the MVLA; Papers of the MVLA; Papers of James Rees","This collection is made up of paper records and a large portion of special formats including sample products, photographs, blueprint drawings, and large research binders.

The purpose of the Association was to purchase Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington, in order to restore the property and open the grounds to visitors and admirers who desired to see Washington's house and tomb. Ann Pamela Cunningham became interested in the preservation of Mount Vernon when her mother, traveling down the Potomac River in 1853, viewed the house in its neglected and dilapidated state and wrote to her daughter of its condition. Both women thought it shameful to allow the first President's home to fall into ruin. A determined Ann Pamela Cunningham assembled twenty-two like-minded women together to raise money to purchase the property, pay off all debt, and return the gardens and grounds to the condition in which they were left by Washington himself. John Augustine Washington III, George Washington's great-grandnephew and the owner of Mount Vernon at the time, delayed several years in selling the home to the Ladies' Association. He preferred a sale to the State of Virginia or the federal government, both of which declined purchase. In 1858 he finally agreed to sell Mount Vernon to Ann Pamela Cunningham and the MVLA for $200,000.","Today the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association is remembered as the first organization dedicated to historic preservation in the United States. The Association remains loyal to its original goals, the restoration and care of George Washington's Mount Vernon, while also opening the estate to visitors 365 days a year. Members of the MVLA continue under the structure designed by the first Ladies' who joined, operating as the Executive Board with one Regent and Vice Regents from different states. The estate now consists of not only the Mansion and tomb of Washington, but restored gardens, outbuildings, a Pioneer Farm, Gristmill, Distillery, museum and orientation center, National Library for the Study of George Washington, gift shops, food pavilion, and a restaurant.","Facsimile publication of Washington's copy of the Acts of Congress, 1789, made in commemoration of the Opening of the Fred W.
