Most items contain articles about Kurt Weill, Lotte Lenya, or Bertolt Brecht, but a few have no discernible relevance to them or anyone connected with them (some were simply issues of magazines which Lenya bought or subscribed to). Items may include reviews, memorials, articles of general interest about music or the theater, and photographs. Includes six years (1924-1929) of the German conductor's journal Pult und Taktstock (photocopies only), several issues of Life magazine, and a number of German illustrated magazines.
