OBJ.N.2023.78Description
A printed booklet of six two-sided pages and a cream-colored cardstock cover. The front cover reads, "Our Neighborhood Club -- Old Town, Maine 1937 - 1938." Interior contents include a tribute to the club founder, Mrs. Georgia Pulsifer Potter, with picture, a list of current club members and officers, a schedule from November-May of bimonthly meetings, past club presidents, and a prayer titled, "Collect for Club Women."Women's clubs such as Our Neighborhood Club were, by the 1930s, part of a nationwide social movement wherein women reformers advocated for progressive political change. This pamphlet alludes to a March 1938 presentation on 'Civic Welfare,' but does not indicate strongly that this club chapter was very politically motivated.
