42nd Birthday Anniversary of Indianapolis Elks Lodge No. 13, March 20, 1923

Description: The Elks Lodge No. 13 is seen here during its 42nd birthday anniversary at the groundbreaking ceremony for the building that was located at North Meridian and St. Clair Streets. The group is assembled with ceremonial shovel on the vacant lot. Behind them stands the Meridian Street Methodist Episcopal Church and to the right is the main branch of the Indianapolis Marion County Public Library. The Elks Lodge has since been torn down but the church still stands and has been converted into condominiums.
The original nitrate negative was copied with funds provided by a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission in 1990. This digital image was created from that copy. The copy prints and negatives are stored in Microfiche Number order. Interpositives are stored in PAN number order.
