Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The collection contains 117 issues of The Broadcaster (December 1, 1927–April 19, 1932), a newsletter published in St. Louis by the Arkansas-Missouri Plant Department, Southwestern Bell Telephone Company. It began as a weekly publication, but later changed to bi-weekly, then tri-weekly. The issues contain articles relating to employee and company news. The collection also contains typescript news stories compiled by Frances Dewey, an employee of the Webster Groves District office of Southwestern Bell located at 5 West Lockwood Avenue, Webster Groves, Missouri. These stories, dated October 25, 1927-June 15, 1931, relate to employees and affairs of the Webster Groves District office, and were submitted for inclusion in The Broadcaster. The collection also contains correspondence and other papers of the Eastern Division, mostly related to the publication of The Broadcaster; and issues of a typescript newsletter titled “The Microphone” (“The ‘Hook-Up’ Between the Editors of ‘The Broadcaster’”), dated 1928-1930.
