13 typescript and handwritten index lists created by Morris & Company of images used in their stained glass projects, dating from approximately 1876 to 1928, with entries chiefly listing the image and corresponding locations in the company's various portfolios. The lists are not comprehensive and most are on ledger-book pages.
This collection contains the archival and manuscript portion of the Sanford and Helen Berger collection and primarily contains manuscripts, correspondence, and ephemera created by or related to 19th century English artist, decorator, poet, and printer William Morris (1834-1896) and his circle. Though this collection is named the William Morris Papers, the Bergers also collected manuscript and printed material related to nineteenth and twentieth century British Pre- Raphaelites, Fine Printing and private presses (Kelmscott Press and the Doves Press), architects, illustrators, and the Arts & Crafts movement (Morris & Co.). The William Morris Papers are perhaps unique among the Huntington's other holdings in that they are an integral part of a much larger collection of stained glass, furniture, tiles, pottery, art work and printed books, making it one of the premier nineteenth century Arts & Crafts collections in the world. The papers consist of the following series: 1. Manuscripts (Boxes 1-2, Oversize Material Box 19, Folder 1)) are arranged alphabetically by author and title.

Startridge, Alice Macdonald Fleming, William Minto, William Morris, Eden Phillpotts and Charles Canning Winmill. 2. Correspondence (Boxes 3-13) is arranged alphabetically by author.
