2. Club Records, 1889-1907
Scope and Contents Note
The majority of the Club Records series consists of the records of the Eastern Coursing Club. The Club was created in 1889 to showcase the hunting and coursing skills of the Greyhound. The Club was advised early on by Dr. Nicholas Rowe of The American Field and the Minutes and Correspondence of the club reflect how Dr. Rowe helped the Club communicate with English coursers to aid in acquiring hares and how Dr. Rowe offered the use of columns in The American Field for advertisement.
The series also contains an ealry copy of the Scottish Deerhound Club of America's By-Laws, Breed Standard, and Membership List. At this time (1907) Albion L. Page was Vice-President of the Club and its delegate to the American Kennel Club.
