Autographs collections.
Description
An account of the resource
Frank M. Etting's connection with the Historical Society began in 1855 when he was elected recording secretary at age 22. After a decade in the army, 1861-1870, he returned to Philadelphia to begin a career of public service. He became director of the city's public schools, chairman of the committee to restore Independence Hall, and director of the Historical Department of the Centennial, 1876. The collection represents both Etting's personal interests and his professional concerns. It consists of three distinct groups of papers: an autograph collection containing materials of distinguished Americans and Europeans, 1558-1887; family papers, 1739-1847, which document the efforts of the Gratz, Frank, Etting, and Hart families and their associates in the settlement and development of trade in early Pennsylvania and contain some information on the domestic affairs of these families; and, finally, a group of papers on the public and professional career of Frank M. Etting.

Description
An account of the resource
This is an artificial collection created by HSP staff, containing manuscript materials from many sources. The collection is arranged alphabetically and primarily by individual, but unlike the "flat" collection, is far smaller in extent. Within this alphabetical arrangement are small collections documenting a number of individuals and filed by the name of the compiler. Other small collections, arranged by family name, consist of material pertaining to several generations. Materials include correspondence, legal documents, drawings, newsclippings, photographs and printed material as well as photostats, photocopies and typescripts of original manuscripts. Correspondence sometimes includes letters to and from the individual represented.

Ferdinand J. Dreer autograph collection [Box 189, American Prose Writers, Folder 1, Cobbett to John Morgan, July 17, 1815]
Description
An account of the resource
Ferdinand Julian Dreer’s chief hobby was collecting autographs. He started with two documents and over time he was able to amass more than 15,000 items from some of the world’s most prominent and intriguing public figures. Owing to this interest, Dreer became acquainted with many people in the world of arts and letters, politics, education, clergy, business, and international affairs. As he was aware of such a collection’s potential impact on scholarship and society, Dreer donated all of his holdings to the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, with which he had been associated for many years as the institution’s vice president.
