Scope and Content Note

From the Series:

Series III is comprised of diversely formatted 4-H materials. It includes photographs, publications, correspondence and articles on boys' and girls' club work from 1915 through 1917, Extension Subcommittee on 4-H Club Work reports, impact studies and bibliographies, and Youth Staff Development and Training intern reports. It contains 4-H sheet music, 33.3 RPM records of radio spots, 4-H club songs on 78 RPM records, and National 4-H Week kits and posters. The sheet music is arranged chronologically. However, songs published the same date are arranged alphabetically by the composer or lyricist's name. Songs published by the same composer or lyricist the same year are arranged alphabetically by title of the song. The National 4-H Leader O.H. Benson's personal file in which the items are not sorted by date or subject was divided into 27 folders in order to maintain the original arrangement. All other dated materials are arranged chronologically. Many of the photographs are not dated and so are arranged by decades based on best estimates. The one poster that is not dated has been placed at the end of the poster collection.

Custodial History

Found and purchased in an antiques mall in Springfield, Ohio by Eric Broshes and Allen Auck from the Ohio State 4-H Staff. They then donated it to the National 4-H Council through the National 4-H History Preservation Team. Because of the information on the back of the painting and the artist’s signature; it is believed to be the 1978 National 4-H Calendar produced by Shaw-Barton of Coshocton, Ohio.

Presented to the National 4-H Youth Conference Center by Allen Auck, Ohio State 4-H staff.

Displayed in the exhibit of National 4-H Calendar and Poster Art in the Heritage Hallway, J. C. Penney Hall, National 4-H Conference Center from 2016 to 2024.
