Bill Way Memorial Service, 1988
Scope and Content Note
At the heart of this collection are nine scrapbooks created by Bill Way, 1942-1987. They include photographs, clippings, ephemera, and correspondence, with extensive captions. The scrapbooks are personal in nature, but because Way was active in the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) community and in city planning, his scrapbooks document the growth of the LGBT community/LGBT events and parade, and Philadelphia redevelopment in the 1970s and 1980s.
The collection also contains some materials about William Way donated by other sources, notably an oral history interview with Maury Lieberman.
An inventory of the scrapbooks and other items in the collection is provided below.
