Stone House Wins Grant
The Stone House is the recipient of a SHRAB (State Historical Records Advisory Board) to preserve our wonderful collection of World War I posters. Up until now, the posters have been folded or rolled and kept in boxes. With $934, and the volunteer labor of the museum committe
e (Nancy Bell, Shirley Bock, Amy Moran, Florrine Neggers and Randi Shenkman), and our museum’s archivist (Cliff McCarthy), each poster will be placed into a clear archival sleeve to keep the paper from degrading.
Properly preserving these posters will enable the Museum to create a special World War I exhibit in time for the 100th anniversary of the U. S. entry into the ‘War to End All Wars”.
