These papers consist entirely of typewritten notes made from Guy Stevens Callender's original ones on the general topic - the Economic History of the United States since the Civil War. According to Max Ferrand, the notes were too incomplete for publication. However, it was thought desirable to have them made available to students at Yale. The original typed copy of these notes is deposited at Yale.
