DoubleTake records, 1908-1999 (bulk 1994-1999).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/42398658

Collection holds story manuscripts (hand-edited), correspondence, and production files for issues 1-16, 1994-1999. Files of editors Jay Woodruff, Rob Odom, and other editors contain correspondence with writers whose work they were interested in publishing and editing. There are postcards and transparencies used in various issues; and a complete set of the magazine through spring 1999. There are two unidentified files. Later accessions include production files and correspondence between the magazine's editors and its contributors, also covering issues 1-16. Accession (2010-0081) (25.0 lin. ft., dated 1993-1998) includes photographer name files, dating from 1993 (pre-production) through 1998, kept by Alex Harris and other DoubleTake staff. Files were created whenever a photographer corresponded with the magazine, and include copies of correspondence between editors and photographers, slides of sample work, contracts for those who were accepted as contributors, and occasional biographies or other information about the photographer. Some files represent a particular museum's exhibit rather than a personal photographer; these are designated with exhibit titles instead of a photographer's name. Files are organized alphabetically, and include correspondence from well before the magazine began publication, as well as materials post-dating Harris's departure from the magazine.
