Eugene Manlove Rhodes collection, 1916-1972, (bulk 1930).

The collection primarily consists of correspondence from Eugene Manlove Rhodes to Betty Luther of El Paso, Tex., along with Luther's typed commentary in response to Rhodes' letters. One of the letters indicates that Luther was woman's page editor for the Herald-Post. Most of the correspondence includes the original and a photocopy, and because Rhodes' handwriting is so difficult to read, most letters have been transcribed. Discussions of books, authors (such as Dorothy Parker), and Rhodes' health problems dominate the correspondence. The collection was aquired from Betty Luther, however, some miscellaneous correspondence including two photostat letters from Rhodes to T.M. Pearce were subsequently added to the Eugene Manlove Rhodes collection.
