Scope and Content of the Collection

From the Collection:

Scrapbook, loose pamphlets, and a pin owned by Rose Gartner (Mrs. George W.) Payson. The scrapbook includes newspaper clippings of Payson's activities in Chicago clubs, a couple of photographs, and a couple of letters. Pasted in the back of the scrapbook is Payson's wedding announcement. Pamphlets on suffrage and voting relate to passing women's suffrage in Illinois, and to its aftermath. There is a program from a conference of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) and a program from the World Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches, both from 1931. The pin is her local chairman pin and ribbon from the 8th annual National Convention of the League of Women Voters in 1928. Attached to that pin is a second ribbon for the second annual Women's World Fair, held in Chicago in 1926.
