Series A: Professional Papers, 1853 - 2004

The materials in this series, created or assembled by Eugene George, provide evidence of his professional interests in historic preservation, landscape design, and modern architecture. The Professional Papers series is divided into three subseries: Biographical information (1972-2005; 1 folder), Committee on Historic Resources (1970-1985; 5 folders), and Reference Files (1853-2007, undated; 7.9 linear feet). The bulk of the material is in the Reference Files series, which includes clippings from architectural journals, brochures, pamphlets, and other ephemera collected by Eugene George about a range of topics in historic preservation and architecture. Materials such as clippings, notes, and writings pertaining to specific building and historic preservation projects are also included in the Reference Files; these can be found in the folders for the regions in which the projects were located. Because the arrangement of this collection preserves George's organization system, reference materials may also be found in other series.
