donors

This exhibition was made possible through the generous support of Jay and Jean Kislak and John and Maria Kluge, with additional support provided by Microsoft Corporation and 3M.

The acquisition of Martin Waldseemüller’s 1507 map for the Library of Congress and a grateful nation was made possible by the generosity of

The Congress of the United States
Discovery Channel
Marguerite and Gerry Lenfest
David H. Koch

On April 30, 2007, Chancellor Angela Merkel, on behalf of the Federal Republic of Germany, transferred the map to the people of the United States of America.

The Library is grateful for the funding to display this map, given in memory of Martin M. Gray.

The Library also thanks George Tobolowsky for his additional support and expresses its special appreciation to Prince Johannes Waldburg-Wolfegg, the Federal Republic of Germany, the state of Baden-Württemberg, and Margrit Beran Krewson for their roles in facilitating the acquisition of the map. The Library also appreciates the support of the Alcoa Foundation, Alcoa, Inc., Solutia Inc., and the National Institute of Standards and Technology to complete the map’s argon encasement and its infrastructure.
