Citation:  Institute for Regional Studies, NDSU, Fargo [item number]   HISTORY  The F-M Centennial Corporation in 1974 asked the History Section of the Fine Arts Club to prepare the Fargo portion of a history of Fargo-Moorhead to be issued in conjunction with the Centennial celebration in June, 1975. Mrs. E.G. Clapp, Jr. as program chairman of the History Section assumed overall responsibility for researching various subject areas. After all the research, writing, and photographs were assembled, the N.D.S.U. Communications Department organized the physical layout of the book. The book was titled A Century Together.   SCOPE AND CONTENT  The A Century Together photograph collection was deposited as part of the research files generated in the writing and publishing of the Fargo-Moorhead centennial history book. The collection consists of the images used in the production of the centennial history book, together with the copy negatives. Most of the prints were copied from original prints found in public and private collections, although the location of the original is not recorded on the print. A sizeable number were copied from photographs found at the Photo Mss 1970  A Century Together Photograph Collection  Page 2 of 3 Institute, however no attempt has been made to link the copy in this collection with the original. The collection has been arranged alphabetically by topic into files. Although most of the images are historical, there are some that were more contemporary with the time the book was compiled.
