Ralph J. Bunche papers, 1927-1971
Clippings, Scrapbooks, and Publications, 1922-1991
- Scope and content:
-
This series contains newspaper clippings and scrapbooks about Bunche and his work at the United Nations; it also includes publications that feature Bunche in some way or were inscribed to him. In most cases the scrapbooks were compiled and created by Ruth H. Bunche, and feature clippings and magazine covers from Bunche's early life, his United Nations career and peace work, and his family life.
This series is organized into three sub-series by type: Clippings; Scrapbooks; and Publications received. Clippings and Publications are arranged by date. Many scrapbooks contain dated materials that overlap with other books, and are thus arranged by size and housing.
