Very rare collection of newspaper clippings, poems, business cards, letterhead, and a few vintage cards and programs! Various Freyermuths ran art galleries, dance and drama studios (and one operated The Scarab Studio selling arts & crafts in Evanston, although t is nothing in the scrapbook about him). The scrapbook is in rough condition with all of the pages separated, but it will be hours of fun for you and your family! T are about 40 pages. Some of the paper artifacts are quite rare, but I did not want to break up the scrapbook. Some of the contents: An article about a baby found on the steps of the rectory on Rush street in Chicago that was actually found by the Freyermuths! A business card from The Millionaire Club in Portland Oregon. Color business card from Mammy's Shack (probably Portland), Marguerite E. Freyermuth business cards (dramatic teacher, reader and coach), Simmon's Hillvilla business card with photo of the amusement park; Letters from Frank C. Freyermuth; A brochure on "To Teachers of Literature" with the Roycroft logo printed on the front; an unused color post card from the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago; Chicago Daily News color and black and white pages about the World' read more
