Antique Westminster College Crescent Club \"Mandates from the Goat\" Rules Sheet
Original early 20th century typed club document from the Crescent Club at Westminster College, New Wilmington, Pennsylvania.
The front cover bears the printed Crescent Club letterhead and is penciled with the name Ernest Patton. Research indicates Patton attended Westminster College approximately 1908–1912, placing this document in the early 1900s.
Inside is a fascinating list titled \"Mandates from the Goat,\" outlining initiation or membership rules for club members. The document offers an interesting glimpse into student traditions and campus life of the era, including rules regarding dining etiquette, running errands for older members, remaining silent in the clubhouse, cleaning the tennis court, operating a shoe-shining stand, and avoiding conversation with girls during the designated day.
Condition is consistent with age, including fold lines, light toning, edge wear, and a small tear near the top edge of the cover. Please review all photographs carefully as they are part of the description.
A wonderful addition for collectors of Westminster College memorabilia, Pennsylvania history, antique college ephemera, student organizations, fraternity and club memorabilia, or early 20th-century paper collectibles.
