Warshaw Collection of Business Americana Geographical Categories: Maryland

National Museum of American History

Object Details

Creator
Warshaw, Isadore, 1900-1969
Provenance
Maryland is a portion of the Business Ephemera Series of the Warshaw Collection of Business Americana, Accession AC0060 purchased from Isadore Warshaw in 1967. Warshaw continued to accumulate similar material until his death, which was donated in 1971 by his widow, Augusta. For a period after acquisition, related materials from other sources (of mixed provenance) were added to the collection so there may be content produced or published after Warshaw's death in 1969. This practice has since ceased.
