Abstract
From Braddock's Campaign to the Pittsburgh origins of the Mr. Yuk sticker, Western Pennsylvania History has covered an impressive array of subjects in its 100-year run. Staff at the Detre Library & Archives have long recognized the magazine to be an invaluable resource for researching local topics. In addition to helping us understand our region, Western Pennsylvania History also illuminates the Heinz History Center and its predecessor organization, the Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania. Long before the advent of online catalogs, digitization, and social media, the Historical Society used the magazine to promote its collections and activities to the public. In doing so, the pages of Western Pennsylvania History offer a record of the Heinz History Center's past.
The Historical Society retains the right to reprint articles in any format or media, and retains the right to grant that permission to others.
