Scope and Contents

From the Series:

This series is arranged topically in rough alphabetical order and is composed of correspondence, reports, meeting minutes, articles, photographs, and other miscellaneous material. The files are primarily related to the outside organizations to which Coe and/or the Museum belonged, private funding, gifts, grants, art purchases, Museum membership groups, Museum programs and activities, long-term planning, and American Indian cultural objects. Of particular interest are the files related to Coe’s assistance in the building of the private art collections of the Bloch, Kemper, Spencer, and Sutherland families. Note that some subject files dating from Ted Coe’s directorship may also be found in the director’s records of his successor, Marc Wilson (RG 01/04).
