Flag, American, November 11, 2017

 Item — Object: Metal Shelf 1-4

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

This collection contains an assortment of items including: cast iron door handles, wooden objcts, clothing, flags, kitchen and other household items, among many other items. Many of these items were not within other collections so they have been brought together in their own collection.

It should be noted that it is very possible that this collection is bits and pieces of many collections that have donated over the years which have been picked apart. Typically when items are donated, they stay together. This collection has the feel of one that is many collections combined since they all had similar items. Since there is no documentation telling us otherwise, the archive has made the decision to leave it all as one collection.

It should be noted that the date given for the collection is the year in which the items were accessioned, organized and processed. There is no known date to many of the items. However, should a date be provided, it will be added to the individual item.

Extent

From the Collection: 61 Linear Feet (Many items are not housed in boxes - they are displayed on the shelves in the collection room. All other items are housed in boxes. Box 30 is oversized.) : Many are in good condition, with a few that need careful handling. There are a few heavy items and glass objects so care should be taken with them. Many of the clothes are in good condition but due to their age, they should be handled gently.
