Manuscripts
A collection of material related to the life and career of Benson John Lossing. The collection includes correspondence, documents, drawings, photographs, a ciphering book, printed material, and ephemera. The correspondence deals with Lossing's business and social affairs; also included are letters written by his son, Edwin Lossing, concerning his position and the loss of it in the United States Navy. The drawings range from rough pencil sketches to finished ink wash drawings; a majority of them are identified. The eighteen photographs were probably used as illustrations in his books. There are also miscellaneous photographic prints, newspaper clippings, and ephemera.
