- Description:
- These records from the Greater Lansing Chamber of Commerce span the years 1913 to 1976, with the majority being from the 1960s. Most were the personal files of local realtor and Chamber board member Rollie Stebbins, with the exception of two scrapbooks for which the provenance is not known. Included are membership rosters, Board of Directors meeting packets, information on an annual conference at Tippy Dam, and annual folders which contain a mix of minutes, correspondence, meeting notices, partial membership lists, lists of prospective memberships, and other material. There are also two scrapbooks containing clippings of local and regional interest, about the Chamber and about government and other activities in the Lansing area, and some correspondence and other printed material produced by the Chamber itself. One scrapbook contains content dated 1913 to 1928; the other contains strictly newspaper clippings and dates from 1928 to 1935.
