Series IX: Oversize Items, 1891-1965, inclusive

Scope and Contents

Series IX: Oversized Items, 1891-1965, consists of items of graphic interest that were removed from Actors' Fund scrapbooks after microfilming, as well as oversized items from the general collection. These items include clippings from publications around the country on the Actors' Fund Fairs of 1910 and 1917, as well as an edition of the Friars Epistle, which was published specifically for the 1917 Fair. There are two collages of newspaper clippings that depict the Actors' Fund founding in general and the founding of the Actors' Fund Home; these date from 1900 and 1902. Removed from microfilmed scrapbooks is graphic material related to the Fund's anniversary events, benefits, "Bread Basket Campaigns," and annual softball game. Additionally, there are souvenir programs from theater and Grand Opera productions dating from 1891.
