http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/746566137

Consists of brochures, certificates, correspondence, a deed, an invitation, legislation, lists, magazine articles, maps, a memoir, newsletters, newspaper articles, notes, obituaries, press releases, programs, reports, speech texts, and a will. This collection is of value to researchers studying the Luntz family, especially Abe and Fanny and their business and philanthropic contributions to the Cleveland community. Those interested in the philanthropic and civic involvement in business and community leaders in Northeast Ohio in the twentieth century will also find this collection useful. More specifically, those interested in the social justice movement in the United States will find the material regarding the National Council of Christians and Jews of value. Anyone interested in the development of the scrap metal industry and the steel industry in the United States, and more specifically Northeast Ohio, will also find this collection of note. Researchers interested in Soviet Jewish emigration will want to consult Mr. Luntz's correspondence with various government officials in regard to this subject as he played a minor role in the passage of the Jackson-Vanik amendment in 1974.
