(Notes: Given by Mrs. Tingle's husband, T.R. Tingle, The Minnie Tingle Memorial Prize initially was to be given as two awards, first and second places of "the best landscape or old Mission building painted by a woman," with $200 for the former and $100 for the latter. Ruth Bennett is the only listed recipient of the Prize at its inception at the 17th Annual.)
