The Antique Comb Collectors Club (AC3) was formed in 1985 by Betty Miller and Doris Eff to enable those interested in antique combs and hair ornaments to exchange information and research, and share their passion for these collectible items. The club's first convention was held in Florida in 1993. The club was active until 2013.
The Antique Comb Collectors Club (AC3) Collection consists of an assortment of material relating to the club's history. These include a history of the founding of the club, a membership roster from the mid-2000s, copies of the first and last newsletter, a bibliography, and more.
