A. S. "Mike" Monroney Collection
Collection
Identifier: CAC-CC-038
Scope and Contents
The Monroney Collection is 98 linear feet in addition to audio-visual and oversize materials.

In 1973, the National Archives destroyed over 90 percent of his early papers. The bulk of the surviving collection is from the years 1962-1968. For the most part, the series divisions demonstrate what topics the collection covers.
