- Abstract:
- The Philadelphia New Years Shooters and Mummers Association administers the annual Mummers Parade in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The tradition of mummery dates back to the late 17th century, but the parade was first sponsored by the City of Philadelphia in 1901. The Philadelphia New Years Shooters and Mummers Association judging cards, minute books, and newsletters span the years 1948 to 1987. The judging cards make up the vast majority of the collection and are arranged by division and year, 1975-1987.
