Photograph binder from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, 1971
Scope and Contents
A collection of scrapbooks, clipping books, and photograph albums. Includes a scrapbook from Dr. Sonnenstrahl’s early childhood (1942-1945); a scrapbook from a trip to California in 1952; a small scrapbook from Camp Peter Pan in Ronkonkoma, New York, the first summer camp for the deaf in the United States; a family photo album ranging from the 1930s to 1970s; and several scrapbooks, photos, and clippings from Dr. Sonnenstrahl’s involvement in drama at the Hughes Theater and elsewhere.
Note that the 1942-1945 and 1952 scrapbooks are in poor condition: the paper is brittle and crumbling, and the glue or tape that holds items to the pages has, in many cases, dried so that it no longer holds securely. These books must be handled with great care.
