Abstract:
Scrapbooks, 1912-1951, of the Advertising Women of New York (AWNY), a women's professional and service organization formed in 1912 and originally known as the League of Advertising Women. Some of the scrapbooks chronicle club history (1912-1949); contain invitations and meeting announcements; cover special events such as the 1931 Advertising Federation of America Convention, the club's 1940 consumer conference, and its Pan American fiesta in 1941. The remaining scrapbooks consist of award submissions to the Advertising Federation of America (1945-1951); some are fine examples of scrapbook art as well as highlighting the organization's public service and educational activities. Loose materials from the scrapbooks include many copies of the club newsletters, Advertising Women and Ab Libber, as well as membership rosters.
