Scope and Contents
The artifact collection is recorded here with images arranged by the box in which particular artifacts reside. Descriptions (and dollar values) are taken from an inventory made of the collection shortly after Mrs. Thompson's death and before the collection was transferred to the University Libraries. Much of the information regarding acquisition doubtless came from the Thompsons themselves.
