Clippings and Memorabilia, 1913-1925

The scrapbook contains various keepsakes (e.g., photographs, cards, announcements, programs, letters) accumulated by Hall during his last year of high school and first year at Oberlin; notations in his hand are inscribed throughout. Programs and other printed matter found in his scrapbook offer an account of his early interests and work as a musician. News clippings he gathered as a faculty member at The College of Wooster and at Oberlin nearly all deal with musical subject matter; most are recital and concert reviews. Hall's certificate of membership in the American Guild of Organists, September 27, 1915, has been classified here along with programs from piano recitals he gave while at Wooster and Oberlin, 1915-1920.
