Series Fifteen Legend:

Scrapbooks, undated, 1938-2007

The Scrapbook Series consists of fifteen scrapbooks containing newspaper clippings, photographs, programs, letters and news releases. The scrapbooks relate to the 1980 World Youth Sailing Championship, the 1981 Mallory Cup, the 1970 Newport Races, and five additional FWBC scrapbooks dating from the late-1970s to 1990s show various events and Boat Club members. Six of the scrapbooks are digital copies only and were digitized as part of the Fort Worth Boat Club History Roundup event held on March 2, 2019. These scrapbooks consist of one from Hub Isaacks ranging from 1930-1934, photographs, clippings, and letters about the partnership between the FWBC and the Special Olympics, entertainment and events hosted by FWBC, and framed photo collages depicting the history of the Boat Club.
