| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Cleveland Newspaper Guild, Local 1 Records
| | | | Creator: | Cleveland Newspaper Guild, Local 1 | | | | Dates: | 1933-1983 | | | | Abstract: | The Cleveland Newspaper Guild, Local 1 was founded in 1933 in Cleveland, Ohio, and chartered in 1934. Editorial employees of the Cleveland Press and Cleveland News had previously organized in 1933 as the Cleveland Editorial Workers Association, which then united with other newspaper guilds to form the American Newspaper Guild. The first contract of the national Guild was successfully negotiated in 1934 with the Cleveland News by William Davy, executive secretary of Local #1 for its first 30 years. By 1935, the Guild had adopted the industrial-union form of organization and in 1937, Local #1 expanded to include all non-mechanical employees. By 1944, the guild included workers at the Cleveland Plain Dealer and the Catholic Universe Bulletin, followed by the Cleveland Citizen, Cleveland Union Leader, Call & Post, and others. In 1968 the Canton Repository became a unit of Local #1, and in 1969 the Massillon Evening Independent local merged with the guild. Cleveland hosted the 50th anniversary convention of the national Guild in 1983, when members voted to merge with the International Typographical Union to form the Media Workers International Union. The collection consists of minutes, notices, general office files, membership files, correspondence, financial files and newspaper clippings relating to the history, administration, and daily activities of Local #1 and its units, as well as conventions and affiliations with other locals of the American Newspaper Guild. The collection also contains files regarding Local #1's activities as part of the Cleveland and Ohio AFL-CIO, as well as awards to members of the local for merit and service towards print journalism and the American Newspaper Guild. Furthermore, there is material on several strikes Local #1 was involved in during 1946, 1956, and a 129-day strike in 1962-1963. | | | | Call #: | MS 4299 | | | | Extent: | 10.60 linear feet (13 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Cleveland Newspaper Guild -- Archives. | Labor unions -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Newspaper publishing -- Ohio. | Newspaper employees -- Labor unions -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Newspaper publishing -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Collective labor agreements -- Newspapers -- Ohio. | Collective labor agreements -- Newspapers -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Collective bargaining -- Newspapers -- Ohio. | Collective bargaining -- Newspapers -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Strikes and lockouts -- Newspapers -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Strikes and lockouts -- Newspapers -- United States. | Newspaper Strike, Cleveland, Ohio, 1956. | Newspaper Strike, Cleveland, Ohio, 1962-1963.
