It also includes details about the International House locations in New York, Chicago, and Berkeley, complete with period photographs and membership statistics reflecting a diverse, global community. An interesting advertisement for the Corn Exchange Bank Trust Company in New York City is also present.
This quarterly served as a vital connection for alumni and members, reflecting the intellectual and social currents of the time. It is an exceptional collectible for enthusiasts of mid-20th-century ephemera, educational history, international studies, or those interested in the post-WWII socio-political climate.
This item is from the family estate of Tennessee Senator Estes Kefauver. Estes also ran for President and vice President with Stevenson against Nixon/Eisenhower. At one time there was a fire in part of his childhood home. So this item may have some soot staining, discoloration/staining, creasing, has wear around the edges, may have a musty odor from storage with normal estate wear. Please see pictures/scans for more details. We have a large amount of ephemera from the Kefauver estate listed and or will be listing.
