Abstract:
The Lumir Hlahol Tyle Singing and Dramatic Society Czech-American cultural club formed in 1940, in Cleveland, Ohio, by the merger of three separate Czech groups. Lumir (est. 1867) and Hlahol (est. 1896) were choral societies which merged in 1918 as Lumir-Hlahol. They were joined by the Tyl dramatic society, which was founded in 1881 and called Budivoj until 1903. The collection consists of a constitution, minutes, correspondence, membership lists, a dues book, and sheet music.
