In 2011, library staff took the sample to a woodworker on Austin Street who replaced the side piece and encased the sample in a shadow box.

From "Library's architecture, art a family affair," 10/02/1981, Denton Record-Chronicle: Authella Ford Hersh, their sister, and her husband, Roland B. Hersh, made the panels using carvings from Lynn's workshop in San Antonio. The wall will serve somewhat as a memorial for him, his sister said. Two Irving men, Gregory and Michael Novinski, sons of Lyle Novinski who teaches at the University of Dallas, prepared five panels 4-by-8 of plywood and covered them with brown suede. Some are templates, designs which serve as "molds" for hammered brass or lead.
