Scope & content

This "scrapbook" collection chronicles Michaelson's life in Rhode Island politics from the years 1962 through 1974, beginning as a legislator, and from then on till 1978 as state Attorney General. The materials were removed from deteriorating vinyl binders and re-housed. The original chronological arrangement was maintained as much as possible. Consists of newspaper clippings, black and white photographs, government documents, some correspondence, information on legislation, bar journals, sympathy notes, and election campaign ephemera.
