northcoastaero Posted January 4, 2015 Share #1 Posted January 4, 2015 I am doing some research on photographer Edward Steichen's contribution to World War II. I have heard that a smaller version of the Road to Victory (1942) exhibit that was on display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York was sunk with a freight ship that was headed to England by a U-Boat sometime between May 1942 to 1945. A replacement of the exhibit was later sent to England. I would like to know the name of the freight ship that the original smaller display was aboard and the U-Boat that attacked her. Any help would be appreciated. Thank-you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtpete Posted January 8, 2015 Share #2 Posted January 8, 2015 The earliest mention of that with documentation was a document from 1981 that credited that statement to: Sandburg, Home Front Memo, p. 309. Road to Victory's American travel schedule is outlined in an undated memo in the files of MOMA's Department of Photography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
