Manuscript Collections
Manuscript collections are hand-written, type-written, or printed
materials created or collected by an individual or organization
and passed along as an entity to the Society. Business records,
personal papers, diaries, and correspondence of famous, as well
as little-known individuals, provide insight into life in Colorado
.
Manuscripts are by their very nature unique to a repository, since
they weren't produced in multiple copies. The Society holds over
1,900 collections, including:
