REH Bookshelf - APPENDIX FIVE

THE HOWARD PAYNE COLLEGE ACCESSIONS LIST

compiled by Rusty Burke

This list was kept in a ledger book which had apparently been previously used for accounting purposes. The list used available space on each page. Page numbers are stamped on the top outside corner of the page. Accession numbers are stamped next to titles, in the right-hand column of each page. Pages 21 and 22, while containing a few titles that might conceivably have been of interest to Howard (some Dickens titles, "Joan of Arc," some Emerson, Rex Beach's The Ne'er-Do-Well), do not seem to me to begin the listing, as these titles are sprinkled among many others clearly academic or religious. Entries in a different hand appear at the top of page 23, which include Sinclair Lewis's Main Street and Stewart and Clark's Constitution and Government of Texas. Following these two titles, however, a different hand takes over the listing, with The Book of History. It is my opinion that this begins the listing of the Robert E. Howard Memorial Collection proper. The Book of History is still in HPU's holdings, contains the Robert E. Howard Memorial Collection bookplate, and it would make sense to begin the cataloguing of the collection with multi-volume sets.

I am attempting here to reproduce the listing exactly as entered in the ledger, though I am handicapped by working from photocopies of handwritten material.
