Part of Toronto Telegram fonds

The series consists of scrapbooks, newspaper clippings, and printed materials. The scrapbooks are of three types. The first is a collection of large scrapbooks, approximately 220 in total, that consist of copies of the 'Telegram', and its predecessor, the 'Evening Telegram'. These scrapbooks are divided into several categories of material: advertising and promotion; circulation and carriers; clubs; contests; events; daily & weekly features, such as 'Schooner Days' by C.H.J. Snider; general clippings; news features (that include articles on royal visits); outdoor activities; photo albums on personalities such as royalty and politicians; sports; theatre & opera; and feature columns and programs run by the Globe & Mail and the Toronto Star.

The second group is a collection of scrapbooks of editorials and contests of the Toronto Telegram and its rivals, the Toronto star and the Toronto Globe and Mail. The scrapbooks consist of Toronto Telegram editorials, 1962-1967; Globe and Mail editorials, 1961 1970; and Toronto Star editorials, 1940 1968. There are also indexes to Star editorials, scrapbooks concerning the Star Santa Claus Fund, 1923 1960, and the Star Fresh Air Fund.

Finally, there are two moderate sized collections of scrapbooks. The first consists of four books, covering the Toronto Transit Commission, 1950 1970. The second covers the canals of the St. Lawrence River for the period 1910 1939.

The newspaper clippings are divided into two broad areas: personalities and subjects. These consist of clippings from the 'Telegram,' arranged alphabetically by personality name, including such people as Winston Churchill, Henry Ford, Mitchell Hepburn, and Nellie McClung; and subjects ranging from abortion to medicine and from Australia to Japan. Both groups of files are complete only to the letter 'M'.

The printed material consists of accompanying material removed from the files of photoprints in the 1987-001 accession. It contains information about the subjects of the photos they were separated from and are cross referenced with those print files.

The finding aids available for this series consist of a contents list for the scrapbooks; a box list for the newspaper clippings, indicating the range of topics or names within each box; and a file list for the printed material.
