More Information

The digital version of the Milwaukee Public Library Autograph Collection is comprised of two physical collections: the Autograph Collection from the Rare Books Room, and the Autograph Letter Signed Collection from the Milwaukee Public Library Archives. All collections contain signed letters and other ephemera from various public figures. Several smaller collections were combined to create both the physical collections, and those smaller collections are listed, if known.
