This collection consists of approximately 1,375 printed items that form part of the John Haskell Kemble maritime collection compiled by American maritime historian John Haskell Kemble (1912-1990). The collection dates from approximately 1720 to 1990 and contains prints, ephemera, maps, charts, calendars, objects, and photographs related to maritime and land-based travel, often from Kemble's own travels. The collection is divided into five series: prints; ephemera; maps, charts, and calendars; objects; and photographs. A large portion of this collection remains unprocessed.
