This black-and-white group photograph depicts the charter members and chorus of the Marion Lecture Recital Club, an organization active in Marion, Ohio during the early decades of the twentieth century. The image was provided by Randy Winland and is shared courtesy of the Marion Women’s Club Home.
A microphone banner bearing the call letters “WMRN” is visible at the center of the photograph, suggesting that the event was likely broadcast or recorded in association with WMRN Radio. The presence of the station microphone indicates the station’s early involvement in documenting and supporting local cultural organizations and performances.
