Beginning in 1987, NNCA housed the Memorabilia Collection at the Memorabilia Center in Port Orchard, Washington. Over the years, NNCA members, serving as part-time volunteers, have managed the Collection. On-site management included accessioning and cataloging objects, ongoing preservation efforts, and the creation and maintenance of catalog records.
In 2014, the NNCA Board of Directors decided to relocate the Memorabilia and Oral History Collections to History Associates Incorporated’s storage facility in Rockville, Maryland, for long-term storage and management.
