Immediate Source of Acquisition
All of the archival material related to J. M. Barrie that came into the library before 2011 has now been gathered into this collection, with the exception of a few prominent acquisitions such as the Llewelyn Davies Family Papers (GEN MSS 554) and the Quiller-Couch Family Papers (GEN MSS 551). Individual donations of material, such as those made to Yale University Library in the 1940s and 1950s from W. Robert Blum (Yale 1916) and Henry C. Taylor (Yale 1917), have been acknowledged in the finding aid, when known.
The printed collection of works by Barrie, also gathered in large part by Walter Beinecke Jr. and which built upon an earlier gift to the library by Mr. Taylor, were described separately in the library’s online catalog.
