Scope and Contents
The Lowell Club records measure 2 linear inches and consist of a centennial notebook prepared as a celebration of the Club's hundredth anniversary in 1987. The notebook is a photocopy of the original, including newspaper clippings, photographs, magazine articles, and biographies of the club's members. The biographies illustrate the activities of the women involved and highlight the role of women in the early years of the club to the present day. Much of the material deals with the town of Boone, Iowa, which was founded in 1865. In addition to the photocopies, there are color photographs of current members in period costumes taken at the anniversary celebration held in the Mamie Doud Eisenhower Birthplace in Boone.
