Omega Nu Journal

Official Publication of Omega Nu Sorority Volume 10

San Francisco: Omega Nu Sorority (Press of Latham & Swallow), 1920. 10.25 inches, quarto. Original pictorial wrappers printed in light green, dark green, and yellow, depicting a stylized woman between trees. String-bound. 52 pp. Illustrated throughout with photographic chapter member rosters and hand-drawn sketches; includes several full-page comics. The annual journal of Omega Nu Sorority, documenting the activities of its Northern California chapters — San Jose, Stockton, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Alameda, and Sacramento — along with a Reno, Nevada chapter. Of additional note is the Chapter Roll includes a Portland, Oregon chapter, though there is no dedicated section for this chapter in the text. Apparently scarce; no matching copies located in trade records or searchable library holdings.

Very Good. Sewn binding intact and holding firmly. Contents clean and bright throughout. One chapter's photographic roster shows a contemporary pencil correction to a member's name; one redaction to History; otherwise unmarked. A few small ink dots to the rear cover. An attractive, well-preserved copy.

This journal preserves period photographic member rosters and original artwork from a century-old women's charitable and social organization with rare Nevada chapter representation.
