Documents relating to the records survey of 1950 and subsequent disposition, 1950-1955 (bulk 1954)

The series consists of materials documenting a survey done in the early 1950s of "noncurrent papers" filed with the Department of Audit and Control, and the resulting disposition of that body of records through both intended and unintended destruction. The bulk of the material pertains to recovery activities surrounding a sample of the most historically valuable records of the State Comptroller, relating to fiscal and financial matters, which was inadvertently disposed of along with records marked for destruction.
