The ship Meridian built by Jackson and Ewell of East Boston and at 1740 tons was perhaps largest ship then afloat see the Barque Hill Association website.

019912No Place: No publisher. Unbound. Good. Adlai Stevenson For President Committee Archive of Correspondence Mailings Press Releases etc. All circa 1956. Perhaps 150-200 pieces. Most single typed sheets or memos with a few Adlai Stevenson newsletters telegrams etc. Three letters appear signed by Adlai Stevenson although it is not known whether it was him signing or a secretarial signature. The archive is from a well-connected insurance company executive who appears to have been active in Democratic politics. The archive has a vast amount of duplicate copies of original typed letters sent by the previous owner as well as responses mostly relating to fundraising events donations etc. Seating arrangements for events present as well as lists of donors etc. The typed letters from Stevenson signed by him seem to address the previous owner on a personal level so they may have known each other. Adlai Stevenson was a governor of Illinois and ran for president in 1952 and 1956 losing to Eisenhower both times. He served as the US Ambassador to the UN from 1961 to 1965. All in GOOD condition with two hole punches at the top edge. Minor creasing and wear with pencil notations to many of the pieces. No publisher unknown
1956021414No Place: No publisher 1956. Unbound. Good. No publisher or place. All 1956. Approximately 30-40 pieces. Most are duplicate typed sheets as well as some blank fundraising forms and envelopes and a lengthy guest list including number of tickets needed. These papers relate to a campaign fundraising dinner Adlai Stevenson and his campaign held on April 25th 1956 at the Waldorf. This includes duplicates of letters of invitations addressed to a variety of people; confidential campaign memos; blank fundraising forms; and a lengthy guest list that includes Eleanor Roosevelt among others. These are from an executive of a very large international insurance firm name of owner and firm withheld for privacy. The owner was a highly placed executive in an insurance company and travelled throughout the world extensively. They were active in politics through donations and fundraising and it appears their family was friendly with the Roosevelts especially Eleanor Roosevelt. The previous owner's work for the insurance company led them to meet with various heads of state worldwide including US government officials. Some of the people associated with this firm were also involved in World War II activities including financing the Flying Tigers in China as well as work for the OSS using knowledge gained from insurance work. While we have not found any direct connection to intelligence work by this owner their ties to those who did are strong. GOOD condition. All housed in a manila folder. Some are stapled many bear creases and are toned with some pencil or pen notes scattered throughout. No publisher unknown
