Frederick Shelley Collection

This collection is comprised primarily of photographic material and illustrations and charts used in the book Early American Tower Clocks, by Frederick Shelley. This includes phtographs and illustrative material used for the dust jacket, introductory pages, and the body of book as well. The informtion included with these illustrative material includes publishing information, as well. This includes the pages the photographs are to be printed on as well as to what scale the photographs should be in the book. There are some items included that did not reach the final printing of the book, however the vast majority of material in this collection can be found in the published book by Shelley.

Also included in this collection are two floppy disks. However, it is unclear what is included on these disks as they are not labeled with the contents of what is on them. Presumably, these disks may include digital images of the photographs and/or the manuscript of the book.
