This series merely lists duplicate items that were not included in the regular collection. These include numerous copies of a two-sided biographical sketch printed by Scribner's; 90 additional wood prints done for Dick Whittington and His Cat, proof sheets from Anansi The Spider Man, and Caldecott dinner favors from Cinderella.
This series consists of calendars of events, newspaper clippings, histories of the village of Menands, meeting schedules and annual programs. Initially these programs were bound volumes listing such information as the meeting dates, book to be discussed, hostess for each meeting and presenters and topics. Eventually they became less elaborate and frequently were one sheet of paper featuring a typed meeting schedule.
