It should come as no surprise that archivists just really love old stuff… SCARC staff are really quite lucky to have such fabulous opportunities to see, read, add, and work with great collections and great people.
For the Friday Feature this week I want to share a few of my favorite things!
From 2009 Cheese & Pimiento Salad: “Stuff canned pimientos with cream cheese, cut into slices, and serve one or two slices to each person on lettuce leaves with French dressing.”
- Fun field trips… Like the one where Karl & Ben found some Benny heads!
This is the sixth version of Benny Beaver, and the fifth version of Benny’s costume (used 1984-1998).
- Really random things that come with collections… We love “What’s on our back table?”
From the Eta Sigma Gamma, OSU Alpha Tau chapter (Health Science Honorary) Collection…
- Historical re-enactments… Yes, Flickr Folks ride!
Bike trip? Flickr folks pose
- And then the stuff that makes me laugh… Just because…
“Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Hardin meet Woodsy Owl. Woodsy is the newest environmental symbol of the United States,” from the Gerald Williams Collection circa 1970.
