This collection consists of invoices and subject files related to Lawrence D. Longo's collection of antiquarian and rare books in reproductive biology and dates from 1878-2014. One of Longo's first book purchases was in 1962 and his last purchase appears to have been in 2014. Accompanying the invoices is correspondence between Longo and the book dealers regarding his purchases and reimbursement forms submitted to Loma Linda University by Longo. Subject files relate to various physicians, institutions, and topics in the health sciences and include clippings, lists, photocopies, printed portraits, obituaries, and offprints. The earliest clipping is from June 29, 1878 from The British Medical Journal about the Harveian Oration. Most of the printed material relates to the Canadian physician William Osler and the writings of medical historian William Bennett Bean.
