This item comprises papers and ephemera relating to the Dunfermline Unionist Club, formed to promote the Unionist cause (in opposition to proposals for Home Rule for Ireland), so membership was open only to 'those professing Conservative or Liberal Unionist principles'. Shares were offered, in order to provide the Club with Viewfield Terrace premises with reading room, card and games room, billiard room, shooting gallery and bowling alley. The Grand Bazaar, which was held in St Margaret's Hall on 3-4 March 1905, was a fundraiser 'to liquidate an existing bank overdraft'. The papers name many of those involved in the Club and the bazaar handbook is a treasure trove of local business advertising and names of local dignitaries.
