GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE, 1899-1930, WITH ADDITIONAL MATERIAL DATING FROM 1867.
Type:
Archival materials
Note:
These records contain both incoming and outgoing correspondence, divided among some 400 numbered subject topics. The same numbers were then assigned to correspondence
as it was prepared or received. In some cases these numbers were also written on the correspondence in the outgoing letterpress copybooks, series 6 through 11, which makes
it possible to move back and forth between the series in some instances. Following this series entry is a list of subjects arranged consecutively by subject number, which
should facilitate matching incoming and outgoing correspondence.
Collection Citation:
Smithsonian Institution Archives, Record Unit 74, National Zoological Park, Records
Incoming correspondence is from artists, collectors, consigners, suppliers and vendors, galleries, and museums. Incoming correspondence is in chronological and alphabetical order. Outgoing correspondence is contained in 46 letterpress copybooks. Correspondence includes topics such as inquiries into appraisals, artwork sales and consignments, framing and shipping arrangements, and exhibitions.
Arrangement note:
The series is arranged as three subseries:
1.1: Chronological Correspondence, 1863-1972
1.2: Alphabetical Correspondence, 1921-1971
1.3: Letterpress Copybooks, 1930-1967
Because the collection was minimally processed, chronological and alphabetical correspondence have not been merged.
