http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/155899918

Carl Zigrosser and Daniel Catton Rich of the Worcester Museum of Art corresponded about exhibitions and research projects. Zigrosser spoke at the Worcester Art Museum in 1964, and in 1965, he wrote a detailed evaluation of the Museum's print collection. A copy of Zigrosser's evaluation, and his notes for it, are in the folder, along with his suggestions for acquisitions and lists of print dealers who could be sources. Later letters inquire after works by John Marin.
