The Verneil English collection consists of a variety of materials submitted by English and Kathy Fraser. English collected the greater part of these items as Carl Albert’s executive assistant. The collection includes internal memos, invitations to prominent events on Capitol Hill, legislative reference material, and various personal materials related to Carl Albert and English. One of the strongest series is the Queen’s Visit and Luncheon, which contains a large amount of information about Queen Elizabeth's visit to the United States in celebration of the Bicentennial and all of the behind-the-scenes organization required to facilitate those events. The materials range in date and topic but help to capture how a congressional leadership office functioned in the 1960s-1970s.
