Thanks to the kind donation of Gloria Jean Landolfi, in honor of Camille Sellito Langsdorf, the Graphic Arts Collection has several important publications and artifacts from the Club of Printing Women. In particular, we have the pin only worn by members of the Club, previously own by Ms. Langsdorf’s aunt Camille, who was a member of the New York branch and a working printer.

We also received a copy of the book: Antique, Modern, & Swash: A Brief History of Women in Printing (1955, RCPXG-6960832), along with the 50th Anniversary keepsake from The Club of Printing Women of New York, their 1971 Membership Directory, 25th Anniversary Dinner roster, as well as newspaper clippings and personal photographs of members.
