Scrapbook

Scrapbook includes ephemera relating to Stoddard's undergraduate social, academic, and athletic life, and his early career in real estate, hotel management, and tax collection. Materials include admission and curricula material, programs for musical and theatre productions at Harvard and elsewhere, ticket stubs, dance cards, invitations, photographs, menus, newspaper clippings with biographical information, and other forms of ephemera. There is a significant amount of material documenting Commencement and Class Day in 1866, as well as other material documenting the Harvard College Class of 1866. Many of the non-Harvard related items document Stoddard's involvement with societies of Mayflower descendants and sponsored activities such as the raising of money for a monument to Civil War veterans in Plymouth, Massachusetts. A typewritten biographical note by an unknown author is pasted into the front of the volume.
