Collection History

Acquisition:

Materials in the Woodrow Wilson Additional Materials have been donated or transfered from a variety of individuals and collections since the mid-1990s. Please contact the Mudd Manuscript Library for more details. A photograph of Woodrow Wilson at the New York Press Club dinner in 1912 was donated by Martin Torodash in July 2012. The accession number for this accrual is ML.2012.030. A letter from Wilson was donated by Donald Lamm in November 2012. The accession number for this was ML.2012.045. Materials related to the poem "Three Cheers for Woodrow Wilson" were donated by Lorraine Murray Budion in 2013. The accession number associated with this is ML.2013.009. In 2013, Charles W. Mitchell donated a letter written from Wilson to Dr. Carles W. Mitchell in 1909 (accession number ML.2013.030). Also in 2013, Bob Largey donated a souvenir kerchief (accession number ML.2013.032). In 2014, James Studdiford donated a signed photograph of Wilson's cabinet members (accession number ML.2014.047). In 2015, Cary Hart donated correspondence written by Woodrow Wilson to Albridge C.

Leavell, and George Haynes (accession number ML.2016.032). In 2016, the Mudd Manuscript Library purchased 2 photographs of Wilson and others (accession number AR.2016.061). In 2017, Diana Myers donated a letter from Woodrow Wilson to Dr. Hubert Clark (accession ML.2017.011).

Accruals

As documents deemed appropriate for inclusion in the Woodrow Wilson Additional Materials are accessioned by the Mudd Manuscript Library, they are added to the collection and finding aid.

Appraisal

A copy of Wilson's "Princeton for the Nation's Service" speech and some materials related to the 2002 exhibition on Wilson at Princeton University Library were removed from accession ML.2016.012 because they duplicated materials found in other Mudd Library collections.

Materials from accession ML.2016.012 related to Jessie Wilson Sayre were separated and added to the Jessie Wilson Sayre Collection.
