Known as the "Little Giant from Little Dixie," Albert held more power than any other Oklahoman. The Albert Collection is the largest held by the Carl Albert Center, and it contains a prodigious amount of material generated and received by Albert's congressional offices. It is mostly comprised of...
Page H. Belcher Collection
Collection
Identifier: CAC-CC-004
Scope and Contents
The Page Belcher Collection consists of 182 cubic feet of material. The bulk of the collection is organized by Congress, with files within each legislative session arranged in alphabetical order by topics. Although legislative, departmental, and general material is found together, the folder title reflects the type of material found within each. Often, folders with general information simply list the topic without the qualifying label of "general." Materials on a wide range of...

Percy L. Gassaway Collection
Collection
Identifier: CAC-CC-022
Scope and Contents
This collection consists of 2 cubic feet of material and spans the period 1924-1942. Although the collection represents only a small part of the papers which must have been generated during Gassaway's term as a congressman, it does serve as a good source of information on Oklahoma politics at the time. Materials are divided into five sections: correspondence and business papers; congressional correspondence; speeches and press releases; miscellaneous; and oversize. The congressional...

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. Although Mike Monroney was in Congress from 1938 to 1968, his collection has very little material from many of his years of service. 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.

There also is limited correspondence regarding his opposition to the Federal Reserve System, which he blamed for causing the Depression. Otherwise, the political materials are few and relate to his 1934 and 1942 campaigns. Most of the collection involves Pine's oil...
