Series II. Maxson Holloway Collection, 1940s?, inclusive
Extent
1.75 Linear feet in one flat box
Scope and Contents
The series includes matchbook covers collected by H. Maxson Holloway, a former museum curator at N-YHS. The covers are undated but presumably date from the 1940s and perhaps somewhat earlier. The bulk appear to be from restaurants and other dining establishments. A few political covers were observed on a skim of the contents.
Arrangement
The series is held in one large flat box. Within that box, portions of the covers are arranged in small boxes sorted by state. Other portions are loose or tied together but do not appear to be arranged in any particular order.
