The image shows a two-page spread from a scrapbook. The left page features a sepia-toned photograph of a woman seated next to a pile of ornate books, with some books standing upright and others stacked. Below the photograph, handwritten text reads, "I was unaware of the history of women in France in bookbinding." There is a small image beneath the text, showing an exhibit with framed pictures and artifacts, accompanied by the words, "This context trivialized the subject of contraception. Object pamphlet."
The right page contains a color photograph of an open book with intricate, colorful designs featuring floral patterns in red, green, and gold. Above this image is another photo of an exhibit setup with small placards, books, and displays. The handwritten text on the page includes "Sign, pamphlet front, book open," and "All 'women's WORK'.” - Dates Completed
