Albert Einstein collection
Manuscripts
This small collection of material contains five letters by Albert Einstein (including a copy of a telegram about the "world crisis" related to the "power of the atom"). These letters are written to Bern Dibner and Volta Torrey, Editor, Popular Science Monthly. In the letter to Torrey, Einstein talks about Newton's theory of planetary motion and gravity. There are also several letters between Dibner, Torrey, and E. Weil concerning Einstein acquisitions. Also included are two pieces of math equations (on the verso of one of them is a short note, in German, about Korea and scientific pursuits - with a transcription and English translation of the note). The collection also includes five photographs of Einstein, one engraving, and a photograph album that contains photographs as well as clippings. There is also one folder that includes 31 copies of letters of Einstein that Bern Dibner collected, including two copies of his letter to President Roosevelt regarding the atomic bomb (August 2, 1939). There's also a copy of Einstein's will (March 18, 1950). Also included are copies of 10 articles by and about Einstein and clippings from dealer catalogs.

The J. Allen Hawkins Studio Collection of Negatives consists of 3027 negatives and 3607 prints (both vintage prints and copy prints), 1924-1972, that depict commercial sites, residences, and other subjects in and around Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley in Southern California. The images provide a look at the commercial, residential, social, and cultural development of Pasadena and surrounding areas during the middle years of the twentieth century. The collection also provides, through its breadth and depth of subject matter, an example of the career activities of a commercial photographer in Southern California in the early years of the twentieth century. Some of the early photographs may be attributable to Harold A. Parker.
