National Headquarters Newsletters #11-15, 1982 - 1985

 File — Box: Letter, Box: 1, Folder: 25

This collection is comprised of documents created by and relating to NAWCC Chapter 7, the Headquarters--Earl T. Strickler Memorial Chapter.

The first series in this collection, Chapter Meetings & Events, includes meeting minutes from 1961-1982 as well as flyers for chapter events. Additionally, there are photocopied clippings of the relevant articles from the NAWCC Bulletin column, "Chapter Highlights". These chapter highlights give a run-down of the goings on of the chapter throughout the years. Furthermore, there are also included a few essays presumably created by chapter members about historical significances in horology, including a history of Pennsylvania horology and Ball Watch Company. This series also includes information on notable events at NAWCC headquarters such as Hamilton Day, a day celebrating retired workers from the Hamilton Watch Company, and the NAWCC 50th Anniversary.

The second series in this collection contains the newsletters published by the chapter from 1997-1992 and the council newsletters from 1995-1998. The headquarters newsletters include information about the NAWCC headquarers, including information on the museum, library, staffing, and other news regarding Headquarters. The council newsletter continues on this theme, created to inform NAWCC chapter leaders about any important NAWCC news at the national headquarters.
