Processing Information

The ATHM # references the accession number given to collections by the American Textile History Museum (ATHM). These numbers have been kept and tracked for researchers looking for former citations. The ATHM accession number for this collection was 2008.60.1. When the materials had been processed by the ATHM, we attempted to keep the records in the original order but sometimes the box and folders numbers will change. The old numbers appear in the processing note, the box and folder are the numbers that immediately follow the accession number. For instance, the number 2008.60.1.1.3, would indicate that the material was formerly in Box 1, Folder 3.
