Scope and Contents
The one-hundredth birthday of the museum was celebrated with a fair of more than forty exhibitors and was held at the First Troop Philadelphia City Cavalry Armory. The event took place on January 18, 1975 and benefited the restoration of the Park House "Solitude." The Women's Committee sponsored the event and ran three booths at the fair. Trustees and Friends of the Museum donated objects, including contemporary designs in quilts and wood. The Museum's Art Sales and Rental Gallery booth offered local artwork. In addition to the fair, the Committee sold tablecloths. The records include the Centennial Fair catalog, which the Women's Committee sold for three dollars.
