This image shows an open book with several pages of text. The text appears to be from a magazine or newspaper, discussing topics such as "Theatre Arts Monthly" and mentions a work by Harry Lauder. There is also an article about Samuel Eliot Morison's history of Harvard, which mentions his plans to go to Europe and gather information for his work. The pages are yellowed, indicating that the book is quite old. Additionally, there are two pieces of paper that are taped to the left side of the book, which seem to be excerpts or clippings from other sources. The book is bound with a black cover.
This image shows an open scrapbook or archival collection containing several clipped newspaper articles, seemingly from the early 20th century. The articles are layered and partially overlapping, with the most prominent one titled "MORISON'S HISTORY APPEARS NEXT FALL." This article discusses the preparation of the first volume of the "Tercentennial History of Harvard College and University," edited by Samuel Eliot Morison. It mentions that the work will cover the history of the college since 1869 and is set to consist of three or four volumes. The article also notes that Morison is on leave from the University for the year to work on the history in Widener Library and plans a trip to Europe to conduct research in the archives of Oxford and Cambridge Colleges.
Another article titled "THEATRE ARTS MONTHLY" is partially visible, discussing the modern theatre and its challenges. There is also a mention of "Roamin' in the Gloamin'" by Sir Harry Lauder, published by J.B. Lippincott Company in Philadelphia.
The scrapbook appears to be well-worn, with the pages and clippings showing signs of age and wear. The clippings are neatly arranged, indicating a focused collection of material related to the history of Harvard and possibly theatrical arts. The date "Oct. 11, 1928" is visible, suggesting the time frame of the articles.
This image displays an open, aged book, positioned flat and viewed from above. The pages are yellowed with age and show some discoloration and wear, particularly around the edges and in the gutter (the central fold). The left-hand page is headed “THEATRE ARTS MONTHLY,” and contains several articles or reviews, including one titled “Roamin' in the Gloamin', by Sir Harry Lauder.” A page number, “[ 846 ],” is visible at the bottom. A small, faded note in handwriting at the top left reads “Art News Oct. 1928.”
The right-hand page is dominated by a newspaper clipping, which appears to have been carefully glued or pasted into the book. The clipping is dated “October 11, 1928,” handwritten at the top. The headline, in large, bold letters, reads: “MORISON’S HISTORY APPEARS NEXT FALL.”
The article details Professor Samuel Eliot Morison’s ambitious project: a “Tercentennial History of Harvard College and University,” which will “consist of three or four volumes.” It reports that the first volume, covering college development from 1869 to the present, is “going to the press in March of the coming year,” with publication expected “next fall.” The article notes Professor Morison’s departure for Europe to conduct archival research, and details the involvement of other Harvard professors in writing chapters on various departments (e.g., Chemistry, History, Medicine, Philosophy).
Interestingly, the newspaper clipping is pasted over another, smaller article or notice on the same page about “Morison’s History of Harvard Out Next Fall,” which repeats some of the same information. The overall impression is that this is a scrapbook or a personal copy of a publication where the owner has preserved a news item of particular interest—likely concerning the history of Harvard, which was their alma mater or area of scholarly interest—by physically preserving the newspaper clipping within their existing book or journal.

There is a visible fold or crease down the middle of the right page where the newspaper clipping is pasted, probably because that part of the paper has been folded.
