Organization and Arrangement

The newspaper issues are arranged in two cartons in chronological order. The two posters do not fit in the cartons, so they were placed in the flat box of “Little Collections,” under “M” for McConnell.

These issues are original newsprint – already the earlier issues from vols. 18-22 are worn and the paper seems more acidic than that used for vols. 23-25. Metal fasteners were removed from McConnell’s articles.
