Scope and Contents
Consists of materials relating to people who played significant roles in American History or who personify the American experience. One such person is the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) who is credited as the first person to set foot in the Americas. There are also paper dolls of Betsy Ross (Elizabeth Griscom Ross 1752-1836) who was an American upholsterer and is credited with making the first American flag. In addition, paper dolls of Annie Oakley (Phoebe Ann Mosey 1860–1926) and William Frederick Cody ("Buffalo Bill" 1846-1917) known for their shooting, showman skills, and abilities to dramatize the American West are also found among the materials. The materials are arranged in alphabetical order.
