Pamphlets & Periodicals
Original printed matter from Alcoholics Anonymous and the recovery movement — much of it never reprinted and increasingly difficult to find. This collection covers early Alcoholics Anonymous pamphlets, AA Grapevine publications, recovery-related magazines and newspapers, and original newsletters and meeting programs. These pieces document how the message of recovery was written, printed, and passed from hand to hand in the decades before the internet made information widely available.
