This collection includes a nicely representative cross section of internal documents from throughout the period of the Grand Rapids Mineral Society's existence, 1958 - 1994. Patrons could gain a good understanding of how the club's administration developed, especially by examining meeting minutes and correspondence. The clippings, press releases, programs and scrapbooks in particular document the public activities of the group. The scrapbooks vary... greatly in format and it may take some work for patrons to discern why the material in some of them was collected and placed together while others are more obvious with titles and dates. There is a nice 8x10 black and white print of Roy Rogers, Dale Evans and their son at a GRMS event near the back of the album marked only “1969-1975”. All material in the collection relates to the GRMS unless specifically noted and near the bottom of the contents section is a group of more general publications. Issues of the club's newsletter, “The Glacial Drifter,” can be found on the periodical shelves in the local history department.
