Three items concerning the Mascioli family of Morgantown, including a newspaper clipping, scarf, and stationary card. The newspaper clipping (no date, no newspaper title) contains an article titled 'Open House Slated for Mrs. Mascioli: She'll Observe 75th Birthday at Snake Hill Family Homestead.' Mrs. Antoinetta Mascioli is portrayed as 'one of Morgantown area's most successful business women' and as a 'pioneer in modern real estate developments.' The Mascioli family managed four businesses in the Morgantown area. The article also names her children, briefly tells her life history, and records her reminiscences of her personal and business life. The scarf is 35' x 35', in blue silk, with Italian phrases and 'Mussolini' printed in white. A stationery card from Mrs. MacCurrach to Gloria Cunningham states that the scarf was purchased by MacCurrach and her mother, Antoinetta Mascioli, on their 1937-38 summer trip through Europe. In the card MacCurrach comments that the two stayed mainly near Rome, and that 'The Facist were [sic] in full bloom - around Rome.
