Alice Tuttle Clark, Papers

The collection consists of correspondence, printed materials, and scrapbooks, 1879-1928.  The correspondence primarily concerns family activities and includes undated prose describing a drive from California to New York.

Materials relating to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, mostly from 1883-1885, are found in the correspondence and scrapbooks.  They include programs from the Palladian Literary Society, Philodicean Society, University Union, Charter Day, and the music department; Palladian yearbooks, 1884-1886; and commencement booklets from 1881, 1887, and 1928.

Items in the correspondence and scrapbooks that do not relate to the University of Nebraska include advertisements related to businesses and events in Lincoln, Nebraska, church programs, postcards and other travel memorabilia, and pamphlets from the American Tract Society.

The scrapbooks primarily contain newspaper clippings of obituaries, wedding announcements, rhymes, proverbs, and conventional wisdom.  Assorted programs are found in the scrapbooks as well.
