Frick Laboratory collection of records and volumes

The Frick expeditions were undertaken by field parties working in various states, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Mexico, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Wyoming, and other countries, including Mexico, Ecuador, Honduras, and Abyssinia. The collection of material lists, correspondence, and indexes represent the historical activities of the working field parties while engaged in various explorations in the locations listed above.

Frick Laboratory material lists, correspondence, and indexes. The volumes of Frick records were compiled from correspondence, reports from the field, lists of material shown by box number, key number, and Frick Laboratory resumes. Indexes were prepared by assigning a group of volume numbers to a particular locality and within that group of numbers the arrangement is chronological for each individual correspondent or subject. The volumes have been arranged alphabetically by locality, but the original volume numbers have been maintained and indicated on the labels. Where the original volume number is shown under several localities, the material is filed as shown in the original index. Thus the original Frick indexes can be followed.
