The Roy A. Anderson Papers, 1909-1995 (10 boxes) document the career and life of Anderson during the second half of the twentieth century, and the early history of Lockheed Corporation from the early 1900s into the 1990s. The collection is divided into two series, Lockheed Corporation and Personal, with the bulk of materials concentrated in the Lockheed Corporation series. The bulk of the collection consists of photographs, correspondence, clippings, and ephemera. The collection is especially rich in photographic prints of early Lockheed aircraft, employees, and customers. The collection is small; as such, it does not document the detailed activities of the Lockheed Corporation.

This collection (10 boxes) document the career and life of Roy Anderson during the second half of the twentieth century, and the early history of Lockheed Corporation from the early 1900s into the 1990s. The collection is divided into two series, Lockheed Corporation and Personal, with the bulk of materials concentrated in the Lockheed Corporation series. The bulk of the collection consists of photographs, correspondence, clippings, and ephemera. The collection is especially rich in photographic prints of early Lockheed aircraft, employees, and customers. The collection is small; as such, it does not document the detailed activities of the Lockheed Corporation. The collection consists of the following series: Series 1: Lockheed Corporation. Dates: 1909, 1911-1913, 1918, 1927-1931, 1933-1935, 1938-1939, 1942-1944, 1946-1947, 1951, 1953, 1957, 1960-1961, 1963, 1967-1983, 1985, 1987-1990, ca. 1991, 1993, 1995, n.d. Arranged alphabetically by format or subject, the series consists of annual reports, clippings, correspondence, employee handbooks and newsletters, oral histories, photographs, and ephemera that document significant events in Anderson's career and the Lockheed Corporation. The Correspondence subseries is arranged chronologically, with congratulatory correspondence related to Anderson's promotions organized separately. The chronological correspondence was originally labeled "personal" as it is often related to Anderson's fundraising work, personal finances, or friendly exchanges between past and present colleagues, however it also contains Lockheed correspondence and memoranda, most of which was distributed departmentally or company-wide. The Photographs subseries is arranged alphabetically by subject and contains prints of early Lockheed aircraft, employees, and customers; many have been previously published. Employee newsletters, Lockheed Star and Lockheed-Vega Star, dated during World War II are located in the series, as are oral histories of C. Hadden, V. Christan, and Willis Hawkins on VHS by Roy Blay, and documentation of Cyril Chappellet's stock ownership. Series 2: Personal. Dates: 1951, 1954, 1957-1958, 1960, 1973, 1975, 1978-1979, 1984, 1986-1988, 1990, 1992 The Personal series consists of ephemera and clippings related to awards, speeches, and memberships. Biographical information also included.
