Wagner Labor Archives house a rich range of collections of non-print material, offering invaluable visual and oral sources for research on U.S. women and labor, especially for the mid- to late 20th century. Included here are several union and individual photograph collections, audiorecordings of oral histories with women workers and organizers, and a diverse array of buttons and posters documenting the visual culture of political activism by and about working women.

AFSCME. Local 371 (New York, NY). Photographs, 1953-1982. .5 linear feet. Reflecting the militant history of this union, the bulk of the collection is comprised of demonstration and rally images. Most of the 212 photoprints are copy prints that were published in the Public Employee Press and the Unionist [listed in "Periodicals" section]. See also Local 371 Records under Archival Manuscript Collections.

AFSCME. Local 375, Civil Service Technical Guild. (New York, NY). Photographs, 1922-1987. .75 linear feet. Recently added to this collection: thirty-one enlargements (11" x 14") of women members at job sites, used in the Guild's 1987 exhibit, "Technical Women in the New York City Workforce."

American Federation of Teachers. Local 2, United Federation of Teachers (NY, NY). Photographs, 1947-1977. 7 linear feet. Approximately 7,000 photo negatives documenting the history of the UFT and its predecessor, the Teachers Guild, including job actions, events, leaders and rank-and-file members at work.

Casso, Freda. 37 black and white photographs, 1932-1950. See also Casso's collected personal papers under Archival Manuscript Collections.

District 65. International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America. Photographic Negatives and Prints, 1938-[ca. 1989]. 1940s-1950s (bulk). 50 linear feet. The District 65 photo collection is composed of some 30,000 original black and white photo negatives, 3,670 archival duplicate negatives (and 3,670 matching master interpositives), and approximately 25,000 black and white prints. A great strength of the collection is the large portion of the collection shot by the union's Camera Club. The Club functioned as the photo staff for the union's biweekly newspaper, variously titled Union Voice, New Voices, and RWDSU Record. The intent of the newspaper and the Camera Club was to document all of the activities of the Union and its members, partly to help build the organization. Because the photo staff was made up of rank and filers, they were able to capture intimate views of fellow members: organizing in shops, being harassed on picket lines, participating in sit-ins, relaxing at home with their families, and dancing at holiday parties, etc. Unlike most labor newspaper photograph collections, which are largely limited to formal shots of the leadership and to important meetings (at least in part because other unions had smaller, less skilled photo staffs), this collection documents the everyday life of the union and its working class members. The depth of the collection (i.e., treatment of the same subject over a considerable period of time) also offers researchers a unique opportunity. Most of the prints are unprocessed (although container lists are available for portions of this part of the collection). See also District 65's Archival Manuscript Collection and Oral History Collection.

Flynn, Elizabeth Gurley. Nonprint Collection, 1895-1967. .5 linear feet. **Rights to reproduce all photoprints are restricted and require the permission of the Communist Party USA.** The photoprints in this collection document not only Flynn's public role as a spokesperson for labor and civil liberties but also her more private roles as mother and family member. More than half of the photoprints are of Flynn and her family and friends. Included are several hand-inscribed portraits from Flynn, as well as her son's high school graduation photograph inscribed to Flynn. Many of the early portraits are original albumen prints. The remainder of the collection documents Flynn's work with the IWW and Communist Party USA. Especially notable are shots of Flynn speaking in Paterson (1913), Seattle (1915) and at various May Day gatherings, as well as in Washington Square Park in 1937 on behalf of the Garibaldi Brigade. The collection includes photoprints of her 1961 trip to Russia as Chair of the Communist Party and photoprints of her 60th birthday party given by the CP in 1950. See also Flynn's collected personal papers under Archival Manuscript Collections.

See also Schneiderman's collected personal papers under Archival Manuscript Collections.

Union Label and Service Trades Council of Greater New York. Photographs, 1938-1973. 1957-1970 (bulk). 6 linear feet. The bulk of these photographs, made up largely of 8" x 10" copy prints, document the annual conventions of the Union Label Trades from 1957-1970. Ten scrapbooks of newsprint material provide additional background material on the conventions and activities sponsored by the Council. The convention shots focus on displays of union-made goods and of portraits of the leadership. In addition, "Miss Union Maid" and other women union members are frequently shown modeling stockings. Several photoprints are of special historic interest. One image shows a mass rally at Madison Square Garden with placards telling the President, "Veto the Taft-Hartley Slave Labor Bill." Another shows the Bookkeepers, Stenographers and Accountant Union of the AFL (probably in the 30's) staging a comical picket to organize office workers. photoprints of the Union Label Week parade in 1938 with a variety of floats and of the Union Label Stores and Department office are also included. See also the Council's Records under Archival Manuscript Collections.

Asian Garment Workers in New York City. 5 interviews. NYU undergraduate Bichiluyen Nguyen conducted these interviews as part of an internship in the history department in 1989. She interviewed garment workers from Vietnam, China, the Philippines, and California, mainly in English, but also partially in the interviewee's native language. Transcripts or indexes exist in English for all of the interviews. Interviews are with ILGWU members and staff, and one interview is with a garment manufacturer. Topics covered include emigration to the U.S., working conditions, joining the ILGWU, and major strikes. These interviews are open for research.

Gender Relations in the Building Trades. 30 interviews. Jane Latour taped eight of these interviews in the summer of 1990 as director of the Association for Union Democracy's Women's Project. The interviews were collected to produce a pamphlet to encourage women in non-traditional jobs to engage in union activity. Francine Mocchio, a faculty member at the Harry Van Arsdale Center for Labor Studies, Empire State College, primarily interviewed women employed as electricians for a research project on gender relations in the building trades. In this collection women employed in non-traditional jobs discuss their strategies for on-the-job survival and their roles as activists in their unions. Interviewees describe their work in the building and construction trades, transport (air and subway), and communications, and experiences as shop stewards, as health and safety representatives, running for union office and organizing rank and file caucuses, teaching in apprentice programs and organizing women's committees. Interviews are open only with the permission of interviewers.

Hispanic Apparel Union Officers. 21 cassettes. These interviews were conducted by Geoffrey Fox as part of a study entitled, "Hispanic Organizers and Business Agents in the New York Apparel Industries," published as an occasional paper of New York University's Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies in 1984. The collection consists of interviews in English and Spanish with thirty organizers, most of whom worked for the Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union and the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union. Except for four New York-born Puerto Ricans, all interviewees are immigrants from Latin America: Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Chile, and Honduras. They discuss their careers, experiences in the industry and unions, organizing methods, and views of the labor movement. Access to some of the interviews is restricted.

Lower East Side Oral History Project. 108 interviews, ongoing. An ongoing series of interviews about immigrant life and work on the Lower East Side, many of them jointly sponsored by the Lower East Side Tenement Museum, or by Henry Street Settlement House. Fifty-four interviews were conducted by NYU graduate students in courses taught by Rachel Bernstein in the History Department; another 54 interviews were done by volunteers from The Workmen's Circle who participated in a Lower East Side Tenement Museum project documenting immigrant life on the Lower East Side. All of the interviews are wide ranging life-history interviews, including topics such as include growing up in tenements, family life, religion, paid and unpaid work, union activity, political activism, etc. The majority of the immigrants and children of immigrants interviewed are from Eastern European Jewish backgrounds. There are indices prepared by the interviewers for all tapes, and partial transcripts for some. Most of the tapes are open for use. More interviews are planned, both by graduate students and by new groups of volunteers working with the Tenement Museum.

New York City Immigrant Labor History Project. 285 interviews. The late Herbert Gutman, Professor of History at the City University of New York, project director, donated the tapes of the New York City Immigrant Labor Oral History Project to Wagner Archives in 1983. Interviewers visited nursing homes such as the Workman's Circle Home and union retiree groups including the ILGWU Cloak Worker's Union and Longshoreman's Local 1814 to search out and tape immigrant workers whose memories dated to the turn of the century. The project focused on contrasting experiences of white ethnic and black newcomers to New York and the community, cultural and work lives of immigrants. Represented are African-American, Irish, Italian, Jewish, and Scandinavian immigrant workers who discuss: family life, education, assimilation, women's roles, work process, ethnic community relations, pre-immigration experiences, work in the garment industry and on the docks, living conditions, politics, leisure, religion, unions, Ellis Island, courtship, class. Indexes or partial transcripts are available for many of the tapes. Some tapes appear to have been lost in transit. All tapes are open for research but some citation restrictions may apply.

New Yorkers At Work. 246 interviews, ongoing. A series of interviews conducted primarily by the staff of the Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives since 1979. The largest group of interviews were collected for the New Yorkers at Work: Oral Histories of Life, Labor, and Industry Curriculum Project. The collection consists of oral history interviews broadly representative of 20th century New York City working and union experiences. Topics represented include the impact of labor-saving construction techniques on the building trades; immigrant labor; CIO organization; the role of the Left in the labor movement and the impact of the expulsion of communist-dominated unions in 1949; public employee collective bargaining and the Fiscal Crisis of 1974-75; clerical organizing; new technology and its impact on printers and longshoremen; and the quest for economic opportunity by minorities and women.

Oral History of the American Left. 661 interviews, ongoing. Established at the Tamiment Library in 1976, this collection’s purpose is to create an archive of recorded reminiscences by participants in trade union struggles, political organizations, grass roots initiatives, and cultural activity. OHAL interviews have been organized into seven groups, two of particular note here:
*Series I-OHAL MAIN COLLECTION. This covers many subjects including immigrant/ethnic radicalism, labor, women's history, black history, the Communist Party, the Socialist Party, Trotskyism, radical newspapers, fraternal associations, and student radicalism, over the period from 1900 to the present. 306 interviews.

The interviews are both biographical and topical, addressing such themes as family and class identity, the influence of the institutions of the political left and/or the church, love, and death. Specific labor topics Frank sought to document were institutional policies and new bargaining issues with regard to lesbians and gays; the history of gay participation in unions, both hidden and "out"; resistance to gays and lesbians in some sectors of the labor movement; labor education and AIDS education; and the influence of community organizing. This is an ongoing series of interviews. Most interviews are open for research but only with the permission of the interviewer.
