LARGE FORMAT

Of particular interest is a large photograph (36¼" x 10") of the 17th Annual Convention of the National Council of Catholic Women (NCCW) as well as a large format item from the Mother Jones Collection. Plans for women's buildings on the campus of CUA are the subjects of the five other items. (An in-house database is available for researcher use.)

The photographs below show the Grand Ball Room of the Roosevelt Hotel before and during the banquet of the 17th Annual Convention of the NCCW on September 15, 1937. The photographs can be found in CUA's NCCW Records (box 185, folder 25).
