content: Helen Treadwell was a longtime member and served as secretary and president of the National Society of Mural Painters. The bulk of the records date from Treadwell's time as secretary and president but some earlier printed material is also found. Correspondence is between Treadwell and other members of the NSMP as well as institutions regarding murals. Financial records consist of account books tracking due payments and receipts for general administrative services. Membership files include resumes and letters from artists requesting to join the NSMP. Additional member materials are found within photographs which contain photos of murals produced by NSMP artists, many of which are identified. Also found are copies of the organization's by-laws and informational brochures and bulletins.
