Although most of thedepartments of the Exhibits Division are represented in the collection, the records of the Fine Arts Department are missing.The collection has been given to The Bancroft Library as a permanent loan, and therefore the original order of the recordshas been maintained throughout the collection (where evident).

Succinct series and subseries descriptions provide a basic outline of the records available. Theresearcher should consult the container list to determine if records document a topic of interest as not all subjects arementioned in these brief descriptions.
