Abstract
A costume party at the Jewish Consumptives' Relief Society (JCRS) held for patients. Parties were often given for patients of the JCRS as a form of recreation while they recovered from tuberculosis. The JCRS was a sanatorium for tuberculosis patients that was founded in 1904 by a group of immigrant Jewish working men along with the support of several leading physicians and rabbis in Denver, Colorado. It was located on West Colfax Avenue just outside of Denver.
