Papers, 1935-1957.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/39186397

The papers consist of correspondence and manuscripts, primarily written by Christopher Morley. The personal correspondence is mainly letters of Christopher Morley to Helen Hare, later Cain, in which he refers heavily to his literary work, to personal friends, such as Buckminster Fuller, and personal philosophy. Among other items, there is a telegram and copies of letters from Ginger Rogers. The business correspondence is composed chiefly of Morley's letters of thanks for correspondence and about manuscripts submitted to him for publication in his "Bowling Green" column or elsewhere. The manuscripts include poems, essays, novelettes, chapters from books, and aphorisms authored by Christopher Morley.
