Series V. Correspondence and Notebooks

This series contains two notebooks, one piece of correspondence and some associated ephemera. The notebooks mostly contain handwritten records of Mr. Gillespie's collection activities and chronological notes on daily World's Fair events. The notebooks also contain a variety of loose ephemera from his research activities. The correspondence documents the results of a 2010 auction of some of Mr. Gillespie's World Fair collection. It is unclear how much or how often Mr. Gillespie sought to sell parts of his collection.
