 File — Box: 3, Folder: 16

Scope and Contents

From the Series:

The graphic materials series is somewhat wide in its scope, with materials from around the 17th/18th century all the way through WWI. Included are a picture postcard, a book plate engraving, an etching, and photocopies of artist Ernst Kirchner's famous depictions of Dr. Oskar Kohnstamm. While they do not share much in common thematically, together they show the nature of the visual materials the family saved over the years even through a number of moves.
