Scrapbooks, 1898-1941
|
|
The majority of materials in the collection is found in forty-three scrapbooks
covering Farrar's life and career. Many, particularly the oversize scrapbooks in
boxes 28, 44, 45, and 46, are in poor condition with loose and brittle pages. The
scrapbooks dating 1898 and before, 1914-1919, and 1919-1921 contain numerous
photographs. The scrapbook dated 1914-1919 contains several pages of photographs
of Farrar taken during World War I to publicize the War Bonds Drive and the
Victrola Records Campaign. All of the scrapbooks in the collection should be
handled with extreme care. |

The photographs, posters, and painting document Farrar's life and career. In
addition to the many individual photographs, there are also two boxes of

administrative offices. |
