The Marlin Club Records collection contains photographs, programs and one video created by the Marlin Club and its predecessors, the Synchronized Swimming Club, the Swim Club and the Swimming Club. These materials begin with photographs taken of synchronized swimming being performed in McCurdy Natatorium during the early ‘50s. These are pictures from when the club was known as the Synchronized Swimming Club and was only available to women. Also included are programs from the Water Show “Movement, Music and Meaning” presented by the Marlin Club on May 8th & 9th. The video is also from this show, but which night of the show it comes from is not known. The video is on a rare 1-inch EV tape format and has been digitized.
