Explanatory Note Concerning Manuscript Collections Cataloged in the Card Catalog Prior to 1990 when archival cataloging procedures were adopted at the Ransom Center, all manuscript collections were described in a card catalog. Organization of Collections: Manuscripts for each author collection were organized into four categories: Works: manuscripts by the author, arranged alphabetically by title; Letters: the author’s outgoing correspondence, arranged alphabetically by recipient name; Recipient: the author’s incoming correspondence, arranged alphabetically by the author of the letter; and Miscellaneous: all other manuscripts and correspondence, arranged alphabetically by creator. Materials that did not fit into these categories, such as art, photographs, books, and near-print materials such as newspaper clippings, were dispersed to other Ransom Center collections for cataloging and storage. Abbreviations Used in Descriptions: The symbols below were used in combinations. For example ALS means autograph letter signed; Tccms means typed carbon copy manuscript, etc. A = autograph (i.e., handwritten) T = typed S = signed I = initialed Ms = manuscript Mss = manuscripts L = letter FL = form letter N = note D = document C = card PC = post card cc = carbon copy p = page pp = pages l = leaf ll = leaves nd = no date inc d = incomplete date
