Rotary Club of Indianapolis Original Letterhead- Banner Quilt Project
The attached image is a copy of the first known letterhead for the Indianapolis Rotary Club circa 1913. Some members of our club can trace their heritage to these founders. Janet Harris has a great uncle listed on this early letterhead.
Club banners soon followed the start of Indianapolis Rotary. Resources at Rotary International sent us information concerning banners and facts about Rotary graphic memorabilia.
Our History Committee would like to adopt this letterhead image for our committee publications.
The History Committee is also creating two banner quilts. Suggested themes for banner quilts include banners from clubs throughout Indiana and banners across the United States.
Our club has over a 1000 banners in storage that seldom see the light of day. The banner project will allow us to better display these rich tapestries of Rotary History.
We wish to publicly thank Phyllis Geeslin and Thomas Mason for their generous contribution of time and skill implementing the banner project.
