Abstract:

"In Chapel Hill, items that were once the stuff of everyday life in North Carolina are part of a growing collection that's invaluable to understanding our state, its culture, and its history." Located in UNC Chapel Hill's Wilson Library, the Lew Powell Memorabillia Collection consists of more than 5,000 objects showcasing sports teams, politicians, reunions, personalities, events, causes and occasions. Powell's collection of North Carolina ephemera was accepted into the library's North Carolina Collection Gallery headed by Linda Jacobson in 2005.
