Memorabilia, 1905-1931.

This small collection of articles, memorabilia and poems about Burroughs gives only a sketchy view of different aspects of his life. Certainly the most interesting piece in the collection is a photo of John Burroughs sitting in his Ford. The automobile was a gift from Henry Ford and Burroughs learned to drive it at the age of 75.
