Scrapbook, 1918-1956
Scope and Contents
This series contains miscellaneous materials, such as biographical information, diary excerpts, photographs, newspaper clippings, a scrapbook and ephemera. Of interest is the scrapbook, which was once a French bank ledger book rescued from the bombed out rubble of a bank, and a photograph of proceedings following the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. Oversized materials consist of a declaration in honor of Frieda Gorfinkle's 100th birthday, and a framed caricature of Bernard Gorfinkle's high school class.
