Scope and Content
From the Collection:
The collection contains Marilyn Stutt’s papers related to her founding and publishing the single’s orientated magazine, Albuquerque Singles Scene. Stutt’s history of the magazine entitled “The Making of a Magazine" details how the magazine came about in 1979, and follows its series of successes and setbacks until it ceased publication in 1999. Her scrapbook gives researchers a behind the scenes look into the magazine including reader demographics, photos, publicity, and subscription information. The collection also documents Stutt’s research on the growing number of singles in America and her assistance with spreading this awareness by helping others start similar publications. The collection further contains letters to the editor, publicity for the magazine and newspaper articles on Albuquerque Singles Scene and interviews with Stutt. Finally the collection includes Stutt’s autobiography and photographs from her life.
The collection’s value lies in Stutt’s early recognition of the growing importance of singles in the 1970s and their untapped marketplace potential for retail advertisers in the Albuquerque area. Further, researchers will find useful information on issues of gender roles and the growing public acceptance of the single’s lifestyle.
