  Approx. 35 items. Memos, letters, handwritten notes, newspaper clippings. The subject of these was the Edward Kienholz exhibit at the County Art Museum. Sexual subject matter and obscene images in the show ignited a controversy. Politicians--Warren Dorn, Kenneth Hahn, etc.--announced their stance on the show. Readers around the region sent in letters. Nick Williams wrote an article [included here] titled "Surveying the Kienholz Row."
