Scope and Contents
This subseries comprises articles and short monographs written about Frederic W. Goudy. The bulk of the materials dates from the late 1930s through late 1947s, and includes a substantial number of obituaries, appreciations, and tributes published in the years immediately following Goudy's death in 1947. The earliest document is a substantial appreciation by Temple Scott, published in 1912. The materials include a 1945 80th birthday tribute to Goudy, in Swedish, by Bror Zachrisson; an account by Richard Hopkins of the "rediscovery" of Goudy's Companion type (1979); and several periodical issues dedicated to Goudy (1935-1948).
