Cuala Press hand-colored cards, undated
Scope and Contents
These materials on W. B. Yeats were collected by Marion Doyle during her travels in Ireland. They document the centenary celebration of Yeats's birth through programs from exhibits, lectures, and memorials, along with commemorative publications from Dolman press. The collection includes souvenirs from Galway and Sligo, areas where Yeats spent significant portions of his life. The Sligo materials also contain a program from an exhibit of the works of Jack B. Yeats, W. B.'s brother. Finally, Doyle collected hand-colored cards printed by Cuala Press, and two of their "A Broadside" series, which were short illustrated pamphlets of Irish poems and songs.
