Ed Davis Papers.

The Ed Davis papers consist of one folder of pamphlets and programs from various Atlantic City social, athletic, veterans, and fraternal organizations. The organizations within the collection include: the American Legion, the Miss Atlantic City Ball, the Inlet Social and Athletic Club, and the Elks Lodge. The collection also includes one copy of the Atlantic City Centennial Celebration Program. The Ed Davis Papers were once housed with the ACFPL Scrapbooks Collection (H035). Archival staff at ACFPL disassociated the Ed Davis Papers from the ACFPL Scrapbooks Collection when the Scrapbooks Collection was processed in August, 2011. Given the brevity of the collection's extent, the Ed Davis Papers are housed in a box along with the Gladys Lody (H074), the Bonnie Josephine Papers (H076), and the WPG Radio Collection (H077).
