Scope and Contents
This series holds a variety of other interesting items, including a map of Palestine and a genealogical chart for the Wehle [Brandeis's maternal] lineage. The death masks of Louis and Alice Brandeis are also in this series, as are their last wills and estate documents. Several items belonging to Susan Brandeis Gilbert are included here, including her college and law school diplomas. Additional items are sorted alphabetically. Of note are a set of documents on the legal battles around film censorship in Chicago, a set of Zionist postcards, publications unrelated to Brandeis, and several calling cards from the Brandeis family and others.
This series also contains the records of correspondence between individuals and the Brandeis University administration and library staff regarding the donations of Brandeis memorabilia to the collection. These items are stored chronologically.
