Frank Oliver Collection

Day Four

Today I finished going through the rest of the boxes and placing them in folders and boxes.  I came across several items that needed resorting in order to be placed in proper chronological order.  I find that the time flies by when I am completely engrossed in an activity such as this.  I completely filled two boxes with folders ranging from 1968-1974. 

Day Five

Today I began going through the last two boxes trying to determine where they fell in the chronological order.  I started by looking at the copyright date on the template cards.  I sorted them by copyright year.  I went year by year and tried to find the folders they went with.  I still ended up with a  small stack that did not have years on them.  By the time I finished, everything was in a folder.  I still had a stack of folders that need years placed on them.  This is where the research part comes in.  I will have to start searching for information in order to place these folders in the correct areas.  All the folders fill three large boxes.
