Notes

This collection consists of notes on 23 botanical families. The folders contain original handwritten notes and botanical sketches (some in color), some written and drawn by Engelmann, some sent to him from associates and correspondents. Notes and sketches are done on a variety of reused and repurposed papers. Notes include plant lists and specimen descriptions, as well as where, when and by whom they were collected. Sketches are done in pencil, ink and water colors.

Items are stamped with numbers 1-254. Only some items are dated.
