Arrangement

Subseries consists of 43 color photographs featuring a celebration for Frank and Mary's golden anniversary (outdoors). Their Golden Anniversary ties in with the grand opening ceremony for China Camp, but the photographs were taken by a different camera. Photographs are arranged loosely based on perceived time frame.

Although many of the individuals in the pictures are unidentified, the various members of the Fat family can be found greeting people. In particular interest, there are several photographs of Frank Fat receiving a certificate honoring his Golden Wedding Anniversary.
