Documentation of the IICS coronation balls of the founding chapters of the Pacific Northwest as they expanded to more and more cities throughout the 1970s and early 1980s. Over half of the items were owned by the third empress of the Raintree Empire of southwest Washington, Roni Bee (a pseudonym). Most programs are heavily illustrated with dozens of images of drag queens, partying and in simple moments of joy. They are also filled with gay-friendly business advertising. Many reflect the nascent years of a chapter’s existence and were created in a rainbow of colors, featuring an array of paper stocks and creative cover design.
