Photocopies of images in her papers (Mss 195.16)

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 6

Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The Audrey Roseland-Scott Photograph Collection consists of a mix of original and copy prints documenting her early career in music and entertainment in the Fargo, N.D. area. The copy prints were made from photographs in photograph albums she retained. In addition, researchers should consult her scrapbooks in the Frank and Audrey Scott Papers (Mss 195, Box 15 & 16) which contain additional images. Photocopies of the prints in the 1940s scrapbook (Box 16) are included in this collection for reference purposes. Except for the one portrait of Audrey taken in 1994, none in the collection are dated and few have any additional information printed on the back. The individual portraits likely date from the late 1940s into the 1950s and are publicity images, taken for specific events or performances. The childhood images date from the 1930s, showing her in various costumes, including two with an accordion and one with a dog. The Groups file includes one of her with another woman and one with two other women, likely performers. There are two photographs of large group of children, taken at WDAY Radio. No doubt Audrey Remme is in both of them. One includes Ken Kennedy standing by one group. The WDAY file contains three copy prints of radio performers, although Audrey Remme is not in them. One, of a woman and three men, is labeled „June Lynn and Her Trio‟, another is a man standing by a WDAY microphone, and the final image is of three women with a WDAY microphone, labeled “Seasons Greetings, The Gals.” The 1940s scrapbook contains a total of sixty prints. Of particular note is a series of photographs of WDAY performers on stage, part of a War Bond drive held in Cooperstown, Carrington, Enderlin, Wahpeton, N.D. and Ada, Minn. Other images are of Audrey Remme playing the accordion, in a University of North Dakota float, dance performances on stage, with who is believed to be Jean Hoverson, scenes from a play, and a series of photographs of Audrey and others taken by Merle E. Nott, some from the 1947 NDAC Blue Key Bison Brevities.
