- 1941-1985
Scope and Contents
Letters received by Leonard Feather including postcards, greeting cards, and notes. A variety of correspondents are represented, predominantly people in the music and entertainment fields. The bulk of the letters span 1960s through the early 1980s and do not necessarily represent the entire correspondence between Feather and the writer. Indeed many of the documents in this series are single items.
