Calvin F. Hartzel. Scrapbook, Perkasie World War I Tobacco Fund Book.

As the weather heats up, so do the wonderful opportunities to find a newly digitized newspaper, book, or manuscript to read! This week, sees our inaugural materials from our newest Digital Library Partner, the Perkasie Historical Society , and includes a community scrapbook of biographies and photographs from veterans from the Great War. This massive scrapbook is one of the real gems that digital collaboration makes accessible to the broad range of scholars and the public at large and demonstrates how Villanova University is truly a service organization. So sit back and look at the faces and images from bygone days, made immediate.
