Title: Records, 1955-1987.

The OSIA New York Grand Lodge collection comprises materials of national, state, and local groups, and non-OSIA groups and activities, as well as photographs and artifacts. National records (1959-1987) include material on the Supreme (National) conventions, correspondence, newspaper clippings, and materials relating to the Cassino Memorial Orphanage and the Garibaldi-Meucci Museum. Correspondence and clippings relate to the nationwide OSIA campaign to obtain Anthony Casamento's Medal of Honor for his World War II service. State materials comprise the bulk of the New York collection, although records dating from the founding in 1911 to 1957 are virtually absent. Beginning in 1957, the records include correspondence of officers, lists of delegates to and minutes, brochures, and reports of conventions; minutes of the Grand Council, lists of officers, and records of committee activities. The District series records include lists of deputies acting as representatives of the Grand Venerable, and minutes of district meetings attended by the Venerables (presidents) of local lodges. The Districts are geographical divisions of areas such as New York which have a large number of local lodges. Local records (1957-1987) comprise lists of officers, correspondence, certificates concerning new Lodge installation, and local newsletters. Records of non-OSIA groups and activities contain a report on Italian Cultural Organizations in North America (1977).
