Opus Numbers ca. 1920-2003

Physical Description: 157 boxes

Scope and Contents

Heinlein assigned opus numbers to each of his works, regardless of form. The manuscripts are in chronological order and the original opus numbering system has been kept intact.

Not all opus numbered materials are extant. Some opus numbers represent book reviews, speeches, interviews as well as collections or anthologies of previously published materials, e.g. Opus numbers 136, 146, 154, 155, 156, and 166. Others are missing from the collection entirely. Material does not exist for opus numbers 146, 154-156, 166, 168, 170, and 172. Still others, such as Grumbles from the Grave and Requiem, published posthumously, have been assigned [by Virginia?] Opus numbers [191] & [192], respectively and include tributes and essays by Heinlein's peers.
