School Souvenir

In the town of Mansfield we are fortunate that one of the residents saved memorabilia. The museum now has possession of several "school souvenir" booklets that Mae collected through her years in the one room school house. These are small cardboard printed items sometimes having  pages that contained a poem plus the list of students enrolled for the school year. The tiny booklet is about 2 inches by 3 inches and lists the school name, the teacher's name and the name of each student as well.  A name of a trustee or other school official was sometimes included.
