Photograph article dated November 10, 1950 partially reads, "When Elizabeth Holt went to Manila to become the bride of Edmund Holt she didn't dream it would be almost 25 years before she would have a home in America, her native land. In 1949 when the Holts returned to the States from the Orient they chose to make that home in the San Fernando Valley." Photograph caption reads, "Decorative screen forms background for vases. Pictures on screen tell story; one side is etched in gold." Edward and Elizabeth Holt reside at 15231 Sherman Way, Van Nuys.; See image #00137057 for additional photo in this series.
