Title: Advertisement and letter concerning a missing Thomas Jefferson letter [manuscript], 1959.

Handsomely framed with engraved portrait. [$]225.00. The clipping was included with a letter from Julian Boyd, editor of The Papers of Thomas Jefferson, to Francis L. Berkeley, Jr., University of Virginia Library, 1959 December 29. Boyd suspects that the letter is the "missing Dulany item," and reports that B. Altman had already sold it to an unknown purchaser but that he is trying to get a copy of the negative used to make the advertisement. Boyd humorously concludes that he has notified Lyman [Butterfield] that, elsewhere in the advertisement, "Altman considers an autograph by Chester A. Arthur worth exactly what a John Qunicy Adams is worth."

Henry Allen Moe Papers, 1920-1975

Title: Henry Allen Moe Papers 1920-1975

An administrator and humanist, Henry Allen Moe (1894-1975) was the first director of the National Endowment for the Humanities, and was a president of the American Philosophical Society from 1959 to 1970. The Moe Papers are a vast and rich resource documenting all phases of Moe's career, but are also a major source of information on twentieth-century philanthropic organizations. As the first Secretary, then Administrator, and finally President of the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation (ca. 1925-1963), Moe made contact with the influential and the aspiring in the worlds of banking, finance, the arts, and sciences. This collection is particularly strong in correspondence and information relating to Latin America, much of it generated through Moe's oversight of the Guggenheim's Latin America Fund and by Moe's otherwise keen interest in the region. This material is diverse, ranging from material on agriculture (see Escuela Agricola Panamericana, 15 boxes) and Peruvian archaeology (see Alfred Kroeber's detailed report) to many folders of correspondence and grant reports from artists, writers, and politicians of South and Central America. Moe served as trustee, officer, and committee member of over thirty private foundations, many of which are well represented in the collection by yearly reports and grant applications, among other types of records.
