Arthur S. Winchester Papers and Correspondence by Arthur S. Winchester PDF Summary

Book Description: The bulk of the collection consists of letters written and received by Arthur S. Winchester. Much of the collection is made up of letters written by Arthur to his brother, Edgar, between 1884 and 1897. General correspondence written by various individuals precedes letters arranged by author. These letters, primarily business related, were written to Arthur by C.M. Dally, James P. Lee, Charles Saunders and Edward G. Westcott. In addition to the correspondence, the collection contains many documents relating to the Lee Arms Company, including coded telegrams and a lengthy transcription of coded communication between Arthur, James P. Lee, C.M. Dally and others. James P. Lee and the Lee Arms Company were at one time partnered with E. Remington and Sons; invoices and correspondence from Remington can be found in this collection along with court documents pertaining to a lawsuit between the State of New York and E. Remington and Sons. Patent documents in the collection, many in French or Italian and dating mostly between 1871 and 1878, appear to be research material for the Lee Arms Company or represent patents they hoped to or did purchase. Many of these patents are in the name of a Mr. King. Of particular interest are a series of documents related to E.L. Zalinski and the transfer of his fuse patent. Letters from Edwin L. Palmer and J.S. Parsons, relating to the New England Houston Narcotic Cure Company, indicate the wide-ranging interests of Arthur Winchester. He was an officer in the company. Finally, personal bills of Arthur, Edgar and Harvey Winchester and papers relating to Harvey's estate are arranged at the end of the collection.
