SOME ONLINE CONTENT
The Biographical Materials series contains newspaper articles about Derso and Kelen and other biographical ephemera like business cards, press passes, and advertisements for their syndicated cartoons and writings. Exhibition catalogs are included in this series. Of particular note is an essay written by Betty Kelen, Kelen's wife, providing a brief, but personal and humorous view of Derso and Kelen's friendship and artistic careers.
The Correspondence series consists primarily of personal letters each artist received from friends and colleagues and sometimes from publishers. Notably, the majority of the letters are written in Hungarian with a few letters in French, English and German.
