| Abstract: |
The Printed Ephemera Collection on the United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural
Implement Workers of America (UAW) is an artificial collection, collected and assembled
by the Tamiment Library over several decades. Known more familiarly as the UAW, this
union collection consists of contracts, agreements, and constitutions as well as printed
ephemera, such as fliers, brochures, leaflets, newspaper clippings, pamphlets and
other publications. The materials range in date from the founding of the UAW in 1935
up to the present, spanning the various changes in affiliation the UAW had with both
the American Federation of Labor (AFL) and the Congress of Industrial Organizations
(CIO). In addition to the international and national body of the UAW, the collection
contains printed material from UAW locals, notably the Detroit and Flint Michigan
automobile plants, as well as materials from rank and file activity from around the
United States.
