Abstract
The American Association
of Advertising Agencies, founded in 1917, is the primary advertising industry
trade organization.
The American Association of Advertising
Agencies (AAAA) Records span the years 1918-1998 and include correspondence,
annual corporate and stockholder reports for member agencies, meeting minutes
and speeches, biographical summaries, a subject file, and videotapes that
document selected activities and functions of the organization. The collection
has been compiled from a number of accessions received over time, and so does
not represent a comprehensive archive of the AAAA. Certain aspects of AAAA
activities, however, are well represented, including a set of card files that
document the professional careers of AAAA members over a 50-year period, and
subject files that focus on Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
investigations into complaints lodged against advertisers and advertising
claims produced in a variety of media, with a particular emphasis on the ways
that products were advertised during and in conjunction with children's
television programming. Other topics touched on include advertising
self-regulation, antitrust issues, advertising laws, and deceptive and ethical
practices in marketing and advertising.

Collection Overview
The
American Association of Advertising
Agencies (AAAA) Records spans the years 1918-1998 and
includes correspondence, annual corporate and stockholder reports for member
agencies, meeting minutes and speeches, biographical summaries, a subject file,
and videotapes that document selected activities and functions of the
organization. The collection has been compiled from a number of accessions
received over time, and so does not represent a comprehensive archive of the
AAAA. Certain aspects of AAAA activities, however, are well represented,
including the card files that document the professional careers of AAAA members
over a 50-year period, and subject files that focus on
Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
investigations into complaints lodged against advertisers and advertising
claims produced in a variety of media, with a particular emphasis on the ways
that products were advertised during and in conjunction with children's
television programming. Other topics touched on include advertising
self-regulation, antitrust issues, advertising laws, and deceptive and ethical
practices in marketing and advertising.
The collection is arranged into four series: Administrative Files, Member Card
Files, Vertical Files, and
Audiovisual Materials. The Administrative Files Series includes correspondence,
member corporate annual and stockholder reports, printed materials, meeting
minutes and speeches, and memorabilia. The Member Card
Files Series contains approximately 46,000 index cards that briefly
document the employment histories of individual members roughly between the
years 1920 and 1969. The Vertical Files Series
consists of an alphabetical subject file primarily focused on FTC, FCC, and FDA
hearings on complaints against advertisers as well as documents and testimonies
relating to advertising to children. Also included is a compiled set of
writings on advertising during times of recession and war. The
Audiovisual Materials Series consists primarily of
taped interviews with
David Ogilvy and
William Bernbach. Original videotapes are closed
to patron use. Use copies are currently available for some items. Technical Services staff may need to produce use copies before contents can be accessed. Please contact
Research Services staff before coming to use the collection.
