http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/29015450

This series contains two scrapbooks prepared by Marion E. James, wife of Charles James. Both scrapbooks consist of letters and photographs that Charles received from people all over the world. Most of the letters refer to his work as a chemist and request samples of compounds he had prepared. The scrapbooks were in poor condition and have been taken apart and the material placed in folders in their original order. The series is divided into two subseries: Subseries I, Scrapbook 1; Subseries II, Scrapbook 2.
