Material collected by Robert Weinstein
Visual Materials
The materials collected by Robert Weinstein include autobiographical and biographical material on Peabody; notes and photocopies; an essay on Peabody (presumably by Weinstein); letters; and some of Peabody's lecture scripts. The autobiography is a copy of the original in the International Museum of Photography, and is missing pages 20-24. The biographical material consists of excerpts of letters by Peabody copied by Weinstein; short articles from various publications on Peabody; and a biographical chronology Peabody created for Dartmouth. The notes are presumably those taken by Weinstein, and are accompanied by two photocopies: Log Book of Car 159 (by Fred B. Lichtman), and the 1893 supplement to Representative American Yachts (by Peabody). The scripts are the narrations written by Peabody to accompany his slide lectures on El Camino Real, Southern California, the Grand Canyon, and Zion National Park; each is annotated with slide numbers. The letters include one addressed to Weinstein from Mrs. Leonard (Mildred Peabody) Chapman in regard to Peabody's work with the Los Angeles County Board of Education and reproductions of his work in a book on A.C. Vroman; a copy of a letter written to Peabody by his Aunt Helen, February 8, 1859; a letter addressed to Weinstein from Dick Bartlett, Florida State University, in regard to reproductions of Peabody's work; several letters addressed to Robert Weinstein from various individuals at the Western College Alumnae Association in regard to a proposed article on Peabody by Weinstein; a letter from the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities in regard to both their, and Weinstein's, work on Peabody; and a letter addressed to Weinstein from John Jezierski in regard to an essay on Peabody.
