Papers. 1929-1933.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/681075011

The Rathbone papers date from the art historian's undergraduate years (1929-33), though the papers are not dated. The collection includes artistic works (graphite and pen and ink drawings, watercolors, and a small gilded panel), a leather notebook cover and its accompanying research, or study, notes and is arranged by type. Artistic works are arranged by the Fine Arts (F.A.) class for which they were created (eg. F.A. 2a, F.A. 3c, etc.). It should be noted that "Section 2" is a title derived from the works themselves, and thus it is unclear which specific Fine Arts course number they were created for. The notes remain in original order. All the material is in good condition and has been housed in acid free folders.
