This scrapbook is a collection of news article clippings-- most are written in English, but a few articles are from an unknown French publication-- covering an array of political and religious topics. At the beginning of the scrapbook are articles dedicated to former President Franklin D. Roosevelt, his career, his family, and his historic passing in 1945. On the inside cover of the scrapbook is an image of FDR with the caption, "The Forgotten Man January 30, 1882- April 12, 1945". Notably, there are articles about Pope Pius XII receiving notice of FDR's death on April 13, 1945, Associated Industries of Massachusetts's 10-minute stoppage in honor of FDR's death, news of Vice President Truman taking the oath of office immediately after the surprise of his death. There were reports about his burial and flag-draped casket, as well as schools closing and flags flying half-staff. A local newspaper notes the postponing of events nationwide, including the Andover Barnard speaking contest. An image of FDR visiting Lawrence in 1932 during his first campaign for office. FDR died in his cottage in Warm Springs, Georgia which was referred to as the Little White House; Truman declared April 14, two days after FDR’s death, the day of mourning. A two-page article written by Eleanor Roosevelt titled “FDR Decline Began with 1944 Election” detailed FDR’s health conditions including his invalidism and other concerns during his final campaign trail, his religious beliefs, funeral plans, and hopes for building healthy international relations during the war.

Some pages are loose and torn binding, front and back covers are completely detached
