The Melody Maids were a girls' choir which traveled the United States and the world to perform for military bases from 1942 to 1972.

This collection holds almost 200 scrapbooks made by Ms. Milam and the Maids during the group's thirty years of existence and the decades of celebrations and reunions that followed..
