TIME was the brainchild of Henry R. Luce and Briton Hadden, both under 25, burning with curiosity, enthusiasm and energy. TIME was an invention, something completely new in journalism, and its success underwrote in later years the development of equally innovative magazines: FORTUNE, LIFE and SPORTS ILLUSTRATED.

Its displays will range from pre-Revolutionary pamphlets, newspapers and magazines to the most sophisticated of today's news-disseminating techniques. It will be a permanent treasure of information for journalists, scholars, students...
