http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/26661059

Correspondence, chiefly 1964-1982, dealing with everyday business of the John Edwards Memorial Forum and its predecessor organization, the John Edwards Memorial Foundation. Letters include subscription, record, reprint, and pamphlet purchase requests, as well as requests for biographical, historical, and discographical information. Files relating to record reissues, reprints, and pamphlets contain written descriptions of much of the material involved. Records of various federal grants are fairly comprehensive, containing proposal drafts, correspondence, and financial figures. There is little material about the "JEMF Quarterly" or the "JEMF Newsletter." Miscellaneous items cover a wide range of subjects, from testimonials praising the Foundation to checkbook registries, 1963-1979.
