Rudolph Fisher collection, 1925-1926.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78680533

The collection consists of material relating to the publication of Rudolph Fisher's short story, "The Shadow of White." In addition to an undated typescript of "The Shadow of White," the papers include correspondence between Rudolph Fisher and Paul Kellogg, the editor of SURVEY GRAPHIC, which was a monthly illustrated periodical associated with SURVEY, the premiere journal of social work in America in the 1920s. Paul Kellogg had been particularly interested in publishing the work of writers associated with the Harlem Renaissance, printing an issue edited by Alain Locke in 1925. Although the correspondence indicates Kellogg's desire to print Fisher's manuscript, the story was never published. The collection also contains a typescript copy of "Incident in Harlem," a short story by Fisher.
