Kosmopolitan Klub album
Album of photographs of a girls' group - originally known as the 'Kosmopolitan Klub' and later as 'The Girls' - which formed in the 1930s and continued into their old age (all now deceased). The eight school girls were from Adelaide Technical High School and pledged 'not to marry or become engaged until 1940. The first girl to break the pledge was to pay 5 pounds to the 'No-Marriage Club's funds.' The first breakaway occurred in 1934 and the group changed its mind, turning the club into a social and welfare organisation. The album covers only the first few years (1930-32), and inlcudes a Gulf trip on the 'Moonta', staying at family cottages 'Wonga Wonga' and 'Wurli', outings with boy friends and travels around SA. People are not identified, although the book 'We were going to be different : the story of the Kosmopolitan Klub and the Girls' by Anne Rawson (1998) identifies them. An article about the club appeared in 'The News' 15 February 1934, page 1.
