CPS #56 was the only Fine Arts Program in the system. The collection includes correspondence with contributors, subscribers, and printers; submissions of articles, poems, and prose; promotional ephemera; ledgers; pacifist and anarchist books, periodicals, and ephemera; and publications from other CPS camps.
