| ABOUT THE COLLECTION | |
| Acquisition: | Gift of Ralph E. Carpenter, Jr.: 2006 Nov 21 and 2006 Dec 13 |
| Processing information: | A collection inventory was made upon arrival at the Library and these materials were originally stored with RLC.Ms.002, Ralph E. Carpenter, Jr., papers. During processing in 2014, the documents listed on the inventory were gathered into their own collection and rehoused according to current archival standards. Many of the items were already housed in archival sleeves and some had labels placed on the front of the sleeve. In some cases, the label has detached from the sleeve and is no longer found with the item; however, there is no indication that these labels are connected to the original collection inventory. |
