Scope and Content Note

From the Record Group:

The Communications Department Publications & Forms span a period of time from 1928 to 1993, the bulk running from 1940 to 1980. Arrangement is alphabetical by publication name and chronological by publication date. They document the early growth and later development of Liberty's family of companies, their employees, and related business and civic activities. Many of the publications, particularly the Legions and Leaders, were devoted to annual conferences and the agents who "made the grade" for attendance. These publications are valuable for research into the human element of the insurance industry in South Carolina because Liberty's publications highlighted the employees, their achievements and contributions.

Representing the major publications in this collection are: Bulletins, such as Combination Department Bulletins and Executive Bulletins, cover most, if not all, insurance activities for agents and branch offices; News letters, such as Home Office News and Home Office News-Letter, announce activities of the Home Office; Periodicals, such as Liberty Spirit and LINK, delineate activities at the corporate level; and Magazines, such as Liberty Legion and Liberty Leaders, Liberty Life's banner publications for over forty years, reflect the heart of the business-insurance sales and agent/branch office competition/promotional activities.

Other publications include, but are not limited to: Advanced Underwriting Bulletins, Agency Bulletins, Financial Freedom for the Family, Group News, Honor Roll, Inter-Office Correspondence, Liberty by the Week, Liberty Marketing Memo, Liberty Securities List, Liberty Update, On The Move, President's Club, and A Very Special Group of People. The department was so prolific in generating publications that during the mid-1970s, apparently having run out of names, the title WhatchaMacallit was given to the latest in the long line of company magazines.

Documents representing company business forms include three basic kinds: Department, Numbered Policies, and T (Term) Policies.
