Date-based
The Scrapbook series most clearly demonstrates the activities of the Detroit JACL chapter from the mid-1940s to the mid-1970s. Most scrapbooks contain information about general chapter activities, while others focus on the activities of the youth groups or the golf club. Each book contains photographs and documentation of events and publications and has been kept intact if possible. Materials which have become detached have been transferred to folders. In addition, some photographs were removed from the scrapbooks for the exhibit entitled "From Manzanar to Motor City. A History of Michigan's Japanese American Community"; these are arranged in one folder and are labeled with a number designating which scrapbook originally contained the photograph. Some duplication appears between the scrapbooks and other series.
