The original recipient of this set, Mr. Edwin Stuart Grosvenor, is a renowned photographer, author and the great-grandson of Alexander Graham Bell. He has published nine books, numerous articles, lectured at major institutions (Smithsonian Institution, Boston Museum of Science and other venues) and has conducted interviews with the History Channel, CBS News Sunday Morning, NBC Radio Network, NPR and Voice of America to name a few. In the early years of his professional career, he worked as a freelance photographer for National Geographic completing 23 assignments, including his coverage of the coronation of Taufa'ahau Tupou IV in Tonga where he originally acquired the present set and is credited on many images in the National Geographic Vol. 133, No. 3 March, 1968 (copy included) that covered this event.
