The Ivan H. Slater Collection of Alexandre Dumas, 1918-1968.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122617085

Comprises holograph manuscripts and notebooks containing manuscript translations of Dumas works, typescripts, bound volumes containing works by and about Dumas, bibliographies, correspondence, photographs, and a scrapbook, ranging in date from 1918 to 1968, representing a lifetime of work by Ivan H. Slater (1900-1968), who began translating works by Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) at the age of 18. The collection contains two holograph items by Dumas--a note and a fragment of Neron. Remaining materials are handwritten or typed translations of most of Dumas' works or materials about him, including extensive bibliographies. Slater's fellow Dumas collector, F.W. Reed, bequeathed his Dumas materials to Slater in 1953, which, in addition to some of his own plays, novels, and other works, are part of this collection.

17 boxes, 82 bound vols. (19.5 linear feet)
