Included are illustrations originally created for The Arabian Nights, Tales of Wonder and Magnificence, Fairy Tales and Stories by Hans Christian Andersen, Victor Hugo’s Notre Dame de Paris, Rip Van Winkle, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and  Shakespeare and The Heart of a Child by Gertrude Slaughter.

This year’s exhibition will feature 73 works on loan from renowned conflict zone photographer Bruce Haley. These pieces have recently been cleaned and conserved and have not been publicly exhibited since Eric Pape’s death in 1938. The illustrations are being loaned from Haley’s extensive art collection in Northern California. The exhibition will also include more than a dozen works from Dr. Gregory Conn’s personal collection, previously exhibited at the Queen Christina House Museum and the Museum Kloster in Zeven, Germany. Lynne Ponte also contributes to this exhibition.
