Abstract
Ethel Wallace (1885-1968) was a twentieth century artist who achieved great success with textiles and paintings. New information has emerged regarding Wallace's mid career in New Hope, PA via the acquisition of her personal papers.2 This cache of primary data allowed for the reconstruction of previously missing details regarding Wallace's mid life/career and has been mostly unavailable for research since her death in 1968.
