Source: Boston News-Clip Bureau, 8 Bowditch Street, Boston, Mass.
Client: Christian Science Monitor, Boston, Mass.
Date: MAR 28 1945
Content: Identical to Clipping 1 — the same Fogg Museum exhibition notice.

Overall Notes:

The paper is aged and yellowed, and the clippings are mounted with glue or tape — typical of mid-20th-century archival scrapbooking.
The clippings reflect press coverage of academic appointments and cultural exhibitions at Harvard University in March 1945.
There is repetition of content: the Fogg Museum notice appears twice, and the Harvard promotions are covered in different media outlets with slight variations.
The presence of multiple clipping services and newspapers suggests this was likely compiled for a media monitoring or institutional public relations purpose.

This scrapbook page serves as a historical record of institutional news and media attention focused on Harvard University during World War II.
