Historic Originals

 
www.wifp.org

The goal for the Women's Institute for Freedom of the Press Historical Originals Program is to make available originals of early and pioneering media of the current women's movement, as long as supplies last. We want to get them into libraries, archives and individual private collections where they can be shared by women of the present and future and where they can be written about by historians, be examined by students, scholars, and provide inspiration for today's movement.
