Series VII., Other Department Files, 1916-1996 (bulk 1943-1969).341 boxes (142 linear feet).This series contains selected files created outside of the Editorial Department, which dominates the rest of the collection. The series contains only two boxes of materials from the Sales and College Departments, with the great majority of the files originating from the Publicity Department. The Publicity Department files chronicle the activities and concerns of editors, authors, administrators, and publicity department personnel in the struggle to market their titles and bring authors and the company to international attention and acclaim. A vast selection of materials, including artwork, biographical information, book jackets, correspondence, clippings, memos, photographs, publication and planning forms, and reviews, among others, combine to give the user a comprehensive view of the promotional process. Correspondence in the Publicity and Permanent Title files is often routine, containing materials such as mass mailings of introductions, booksellers' comments, and requests for review copies from individuals, organizations, newspapers and journals. However, some files offer exchanges between authors, editors, and book designers, primarily concerning promotional strategies, itineraries, and editing or revisions of manuscripts. The Publicity Department subseries is also rich with photographs (some with accompanying negatives), including portraits, publicity stills, and candid snapshots. Renowned photographers such as Henri Cartier Bresson, E. O. Hoppe, Edward Steichen, and Carl Van Vechten contribute to the photo documentation of the collection, capturing such Knopf dignitaries as Willa Cather, John Hersey, Thomas Mann, H. L. Mencken, and many others. Additionally, this subseries holds thousands of snapshots and portraits of authors, colleagues, and family members taken by Alfred A. Knopf, an avid amateur photographer. Author questionnaires are found scattered throughout the Publicity subseries, but also in an alphabetically arranged collection of files of the biographical forms dating 1929-1965 (bulk 1948-1955). Valuable for their autobiographical content, the questionnaires also offer descriptions of an author's work. While some forms give scant information, others have been filled out in great detail, providing manuscript descriptions, author ideas for publicity, target audiences, previous awards, honors and publications, occupations, and family information. Other files in the Publicity Department subseries were created by publicity managers W. T. Loverd (ca. 1968-1970) and Jane Becker Friedman. Because Friedman advanced to Publicity Director, and also Vice President and Associate Publisher, her files reflect a lengthier time span (ca. 1966-1988), and a more narrow focus, especially in the later years, on the promotion of cookbooks. The Sales Department subseries contains the files of senior salesman Leon Anderson, focusing on his activities as a member of the Knopf sales department (1946-1960). The internal correspondence in this subseries is rich with encouragement, sales strategy, and advice from Knopf administrators such as Treasurer Joseph Lesser, Alfred and Blanche Knopf, and Sales Manager Alfred A. (Pat) Knopf, Jr. Also chronicled is Pat Knopf's resignation from the firm. The correspondence continues through Anderson's resignation in January 1960 and includes personal letters from Alfred Knopf as late as 1970. The College Department files contain correspondence and memos primarily concerning employee qualifications, expectations and duties, and suggestions for manuscripts. The file for the head of the College Department, John T. Hawes, includes ledger sheets containing comparisons of expected and actual sales, new title lists, and sales projections.

Knopf, Inc. Company. It contains the correspondence for the day-to-day operations of the firm, including letters from foreign publishers seeking publication and translation rights, contacts with young writers, inquiries from aspiring authors, correspondence on legal matters such as copyright, letters from literary agents, and requests for information about writers. The General Correspondence series also contains correspondence between editors and Knopf authors, many files of which follow the creation of a book from the original idea to its final publication. Taken as a whole, this series offers a comprehensive overview of the activities of the editorial offices. The main strength of the series derives from the individual files devoted to writers published by Knopf. These files typically reveal the writer's first connection with the company, which might have occurred when the firm contacted the writer expressing their interest in her or his work, or when the author submitted a manuscript. Files follow the correspondence between the editor and writer, revealing the relationship between the two as the manuscript progresses, continues once the book is published, and shows how the book is received and how well it sells. Especially interesting is the way the files reveal how an editor would guide the creative process, as she or he suggests changes, additions, or deletions. While the vast majority of files contain correspondence only, some files relate to the inner workings of the firm. These are labelled by department or, more often, by employee name; the most significant are for Blanche and Alfred A. Knopf, and can be found in most years. The files rely on the use of documentation in the form of internal memoranda that were sent from editors and employees of other departments to update the Knopfs on current activities. Folders titled with the name of a trip taken by Alfred or Blanche Knopf in a specific year often include narrative descriptions of the visit, including detailed lists of publishers, scouts, literary agents, and writers with whom they met. Further, information about writers is also available in these folders. For example, internal memos about the rejection of John Knowles' A Separate Peace are in one of Blanche Knopf's European trip folders. Other employee named files, like those of Secretary and later President William A. Koshland, give an overview of the firm's administrative history.
