Rare Books Department 1151 Oxford Road San Marino, California 91108 Phone: (626) 405-2191 Email: [email protected] URL: http://www.huntington.org URL: http://www.huntington.org Abstract: The Francis Bacon Library was a private rare book research library on the campus of the Claremont Colleges in Claremont, California. It was founded by Walter Conrad Arensberg and his wife, Louise Stevens Arensberg. In 1938, they established The Francis Bacon Foundation to promote study of the life and works of statesman Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626). The Foundation administered the Francis Bacon Library, which included a comprehensive collection on the Shakespeare authorship controversy, a subject of great personal interest to Walter Arensberg, who believed that Bacon was the true author of Shakespeare's plays. This archive contains the records of the Library, which closed in 1995, including papers and correspondence of scholars interested in Bacon and the authorship question. It also contains the personal and family papers of the Arensbergs, and Walter Arensberg's cryptographic files and research on the authorship controversy.

Historical Note The Francis Bacon Library was a private rare book library that stood on the campus of Claremont Colleges, California, from 1960 to 1995. It was established and operated by the Francis Bacon Foundation, created in 1938 by Walter Conrad Arensberg (1878-1954) and his wife, Louise Stevens Arensberg (1879-1953). The library grew out of the private collection of Walter Arensberg, a scholar, poet and art collector born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to a wealthy industrial family. He became interested in Dante during his undergraduate years at Harvard University, 1896-1900, and started collecting Dante material. His interests grew to include the Renaissance, and in particular, philosopher, essayist and statesman Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626). Arensberg began collecting books by and about Bacon, along with material in all the fields of Bacon's interest: law, politics, affairs of state, philosophy, the natural and physical sciences, literature, cryptography, magic, witchcraft, the occult, alchemy, and Rosicrucianism. He became convinced that Bacon was the true author of the plays and poems attributed to William Shakespeare, and embarked on what would become a lifelong obsession – using cryptographic methods to discover supposed hidden meanings and secret messages embedded in Shakespeare's text by Bacon or by a Baconian secret society. Arensberg, an intellectual with a

Francis Bacon Library Archive 602120 2 passion for chess, numerology and word games, became engrossed with analyzing texts, and hired researchers and cryptographers to assist him. He published The Cryptography of Shakespeare in 1922 and other works on the subject throughout the 1920s. Though Arensberg's efforts were ultimately unsuccessful and his unorthodox cipher systems considered incapable of proof, his conviction and enthusiasm for his theories seldom waned, even up until his death in 1954. The Arensbergs had relocated from New York to Los Angeles in 1921. They had begun collecting art in New York, where they had developed friendships with avant-garde intellectuals and artists--in particular, Marcel Duchamp. After moving west, they eventually settled, in 1927, into a home in Hollywood that became filled with books and art. While Walter steadily enlarged his library and conducted his cryptographic research, he and Louise were also building an important collection of modern and pre-Columbian art. In 1938, Walter and Louise Arensberg founded the Francis Bacon Foundation as an educational and research institution to promote study in science, literature, religion, history and philosophy, with special emphasis on Bacon's life, character and influences. Booksellers in Europe became aware of the Arensbergs' search for rare books and manuscripts, and together with Foundation President and Library Director Elizabeth Wrigley, the Arensbergs assembled one of the most extensive libraries of Bacon material in the world. The Foundation administered the library out of the Arensbergs' home at 7065 Hillside Avenue, Hollywood, until it was moved to an office building in Pasadena in 1954, after the Arensbergs' deaths. There, the Francis Bacon Library opened its doors to the public for the first time, as the Arensbergs had intended. In 1960, the library found a permanent home on the campus of the Claremont Colleges in Claremont, California, in a new building financed by the Foundation. The small red-brick building was formally dedicated May 8, 1960, and drew scholars, students, faculty and members of the public to its doors for 35 years, until it was closed in 1995. A major factor in its closing was the failing health of Elizabeth Wrigley, longtime director of the library, who had begun working for Mr. Arensberg in 1944. (See Biographical Note on Elizabeth Wrigley in Library Records series.) Under Wrigley's guidance, the library had grown to over 14,000 titles by 1995. It had one of the world's largest collections on Francis Bacon, and one of the largest collections on the Shakespeare authorship controversy in the United States. The library also held works by numerous other Elizabethan and Jacobean authors, and supporting collections in emblem literature, Rosicrucian works, and early American political theory. The library primarily served the academic community but made efforts to welcome the larger public pursuing scholarship, education or simply personal interest. The library staff held regular open houses and exhibits to attract new visitors, many of whom were students. Each year, they mounted a major themed exhibition and a lecture and fete in honor of Bacon's birthday. The library interior was richly decorated with Oriental rugs, gooseneck lamps and an iron chandelier that hung from a beamed oak ceiling. It was a place for serious research but had its lighthearted moments too. A 1987 exhibit on divination included 20 different methods of divination for visitors to actually try. There was an overwhelmingly favorable response and coverage in the local media, including an article in a local newspaper featuring a photo of a costumed librarian gazing into a crystal ball. The library held memberships in professional organizations and co-sponsored events and lectures related to Bacon and Renaissance literature. It was an associate presenter of the Renaissance Conference of Southern California, along with the Huntington Library, the Getty and others. The library also sponsored a lecture series at the University of Southern California featuring prominent scholars from all over the world. Regarding the Bacon-Shakespeare authorship question, in a 1981 letter, library director Elizabeth Wrigley explained: "Our late founder, Walter Arensberg, had his own cipher system, and we continued to work on it for six years after his death. At that time the Board of Trustees felt that we should not continue as we did not have his guidance. The Foundation does not promote the controversy. We make written materials available to scholars, but that is it. We serve as a kind of clearinghouse for Bacon scholarship, which does include some work on the controversy." When the library closed in 1995, its collection of books and manuscripts were donated to the Huntington Library, along with institutional records and some of the Arensbergs' personal papers. The papers related to the Arensbergs' art collection and most of the Foundation's administrative records were given to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which had earlier been given the art collection. Scope and Content This collection contains the archive of the Francis Bacon Library, a private rare book research library on the campus of the Claremont Colleges in Claremont, California. The archive is organized into five series: Library Records; Personal Papers given to the Library; Francis Bacon Foundation Records; the Walter and Louise Arensberg Papers; and the Art and Artifacts Collection. The Library records include administration and collection records, gifts and acquisitions, exhibit records, and a large portion of correspondence. The correspondence, almost entirely written by library director Elizabeth Wrigley, is with students, other

Francis Bacon Library Archive 602120 3 organizations, scholars, and, notably, interested Baconians (supporters of the theory that Francis Bacon was the true author of the plays attributed to Shakespeare). There are also records of gifts to the library, including books, ephemera and papers of Baconians and other scholars studying the Shakespeare authorship question. These papers comprise the Personal Papers series, and are organized by owner name: Isabelle Kittson Brown, Eugene Dernay, George Drury, Johan Franco, R. W. (Reginald Walter) Gibson, Olive Woodward Hoss, Karl [Richards] Wallace, and A. Allen Woodruff. The Francis Bacon Foundation papers contain articles of incorporation, financial and legal documents, and some correspondence of the board members. There are also clippings and photostats on Shakespeare, Bacon and Elizabethan history that were collected for research purposes. This represents only a portion of the Foundation records; the remainder are in the collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The personal and family papers of Walter and Louise Arensberg include Walter Arensberg's cryptographic research files, charts and notes; personal papers; drafts of his poems and books; correspondence with Baconians; photographs; and letters of Arensberg and [Louise] Stevens family members. The letters between Walter and his brother Charles F. C. Arensberg are particularly personal and informative. This portion of the Arensbergs' personal papers does not include their correspondence with artists or their art-collecting activities. Those papers (the Arensberg Archives) were given by the Francis Bacon Foundation to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which also holds the Arensberg Art Collection of Modern and pre-Columbian art. The last series of the archive is a group of art objects and historical artifacts that belonged to the Foundation and library. Some were collected by the Arensbergs, and some were acquired by the library after their deaths. They are listed with their original descriptions kept by the Foundation. The collection is organized into these series and subseries: Series 1. Library Records 1.1 Administrative records 1.2 Collection records 1.3 Correspondence 1.3.1. General 1.3.2.

Francis Bacon Library Archive 602120 6 1. LIBRARY RECORDS, 1938-1996 1.1. Administrative Records

1. LIBRARY RECORDS, 1938-1996 Scope and Content Note Includes administrative records; applications for reading privileges; event records such as open houses, lectures, book sales and exhibits; collection records; and a large portion of correspondence almost entirely written by Elizabeth Wrigley, library director. The insurance files are of note for listings of many of the rare books and their appraised values. A significant part of this series are the letters received from many interested people about the Shakespeare authorship question from 1920s to 1995. The correspondence shows how, over the years, Wrigley developed personal relationships with many of the scholars who were interested in the library. The correspondence with collector R. W. Gibson, who published a bibliography of Bacon in 1950, contains interesting details about specific Bacon works. The correspondence also presents a good record of what the library held, and what they were still buying, seeking and collecting. There are some attachments of flyers, article reprints, clippings and some photographs with the correspondence. Copies of scholarly articles written by correspondents are filed with their correspondence, as originally organized. The Shakespeare Authorship Roundtable files contain many articles and reprints regarding the Shakespeare authorship question. Biographical Note Elizabeth Wrigley (1915-1997) was associated with the Francis Bacon Library for 50 years, almost the entire time of its existence. Wrigley held bachelor's degrees in Elizabethan literature and library science and was an analyst for U.S. Steel in her native Pittsburgh from 1941 to 1943. Shortly after she and her husband moved to California, they were invited to tea at the Hollywood home of Walter Arensberg. He needed help with his library and in 1944, she went to work for him as a research assistant and rare book cataloger. The next year she was named as an executive and member of the board of the Foundation. By 1959, Wrigley was president of the Foundation and director of the library. Wrigley was a woman of colorful character known to invite visitors to the library for "coffee at 10 a.m. and tea at 4 p.m." She was extremely knowledgeable about Bacon and the Shakespeare authorship issue, and served on the Board of Advisors of the Shakespeare Authorship Roundtable. Wrigley was also an active member of the American Cryptogram Association, most likely an interest developed in her years working with Walter Arensberg. In 1958, Wrigley published Short title catalogue numbers in the library of the Francis Bacon Foundation, incorporated, and a supplement in 1967. Due to health issues, she stopped working for the Foundation and library in 1995, and the library closed the same year. She passed away in 1997 at age 81.

WALTER AND LOUISE ARENSBERG PAPERS Scope and Content Note A significant portion of these papers consists of Walter Arensberg's cryptographic research notes and files, circa 1920 to 1954. His notes demonstrate his conviction that he would eventually unlock the key to the ciphers in Shakespeare's texts despite unsuccessful results and contrary opinion. There are many typescripts by Arensberg, but also research work done by his staff, at his direction. The titles of his research subject files give a good idea of the topics of interest to Arensberg, many related to mythology and symbolism. There are a few letters with private researchers or librarians dealing with specific topics in the subject files. The research work was carried on by the staff for approximately six years after his death in January 1954. Also included here is personal correspondence with family, friends and other Baconians, and some of Walter's early and experimental poetry. Walter's letters to Louise in 1923 and 1924 are an account of his first visit to Lichfield, England, where he hoped to convince local authorities of his theory that Bacon was buried there. The letters of Walter's father, Conrad Christian Arensberg, demonstrate his pride in Walter's books of the 1920s. Letters to his brother Charles F. C. Arensberg, to whom he appeared to be close, contain some accounts from Walter about his Baconian theories. Also of note are letters from Helen Keller (to Charles F. C. Arensberg); writer Henry Miller; film director John Huston; noted World War II cryptologist William F. Friedman; and Clyde Wolfe, a California Institute of Technology professor whom Arensberg hired, along with Friedman, to assist with his cipher work. Personal items include family photographs, two of Walter Arensberg's passports, medical and financial records, and copies of the Arensbergs' wills. The collection also includes family photographs of the Arensberg and [Louise] Stevens families, including Walter and Louise.

(See the Arensberg Archives, Philadelphia Museum of Art, for the negatives for these prints and more information.)

5. ART AND ARTIFACTS COLLECTION Scope and Content Note These items were either collected by the Arensbergs during their lifetimes or acquired by the Francis Bacon Foundation and Library after their deaths. There is little supporting documentation, other than brief descriptions on photocopies of file cards for each item. The original file card descriptions are at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Some items belonged to Isabelle Kittson Brown (indicated below), and were donated with her papers. Several items were on display in the Francis Bacon Library in Claremont. The original item numbers and descriptions have been retained for each item. Key to abbreviations in front of numbers: A&A = Archaeological and Anthropological; FA = Library Furnishings - Antique; WA = Works of Art; B = Library "B" list. NOTE: Descriptive information may not be accurate or reliable. A curator has examined some pieces and found the descriptions were wrong. See "Separated Materials Note" at beginning of finding aid regarding an Anna Hyatt Huntington sculpture that was transferred from this collection.

It has a large quantity of rust and hardened soil (?) on its surface. In style of decoration, it evokes the Western Zhou (about 1100 to 771BCE) period. However it is probably not of that vintage. The rusting and its heavy weight seems to indicate some iron in the metal--something that would not be used in the Western Zhou. Iron was used to cast sculpture, etc. later, especially by the Ming and Qing onwards. Was this piece the result of later attempts (i.e. Ming/Qing/modern) to create an antique object? The hardened mud/soil accretions may be an indication of this scenario.] Source: Examination by Huntington Library art curator, 2013. Box 143 FA-2/798 Candlestick. Black, with snuffer.
