Scope and Contents

See series scope and contents for more details about the arrangement of this folder. The material in this folder connected to Edward and Robert Kirkbride's research on Beatrice and Earle include notes and photocopies of Earle's art. The remaining papers, which were created during the 1950's relate to Earle's personal and professional life. There is correspondence from 1956 with Warner Carr, a colleague from Earle's time in Milwaukee catching up on every day goings on and lamenting the turn away for their preferred styles of art that the field has taken. There is a Jan. 1954 letter to Marion Hallowell checking in, responding to letter saying her house would be vacant again in case the Kirkbrides would want to live there again. Also include catalogs and pamphlets about Earle's membership in Philadelphia Sketch Club circa 1959-1960 and participation in the 1956, 1957, and 1958 annual exhibition of etchings and the  “96th Annual Exhibition of Small Oil Paintings” in 1959. Survey and sketch of house the Kirkbride presumably lived in Milwaukee, a Kenwood Methodist Church Yearbook 1953-54, an abridged transcript of radio program the Kirkbrides participated in “Young Moderns and Authors Talk Books” (January 26, 1952), and a photocopy of the first page of program for celebration of Gwynedd Month Meeting 250th anniversary and a page which lists the Kirkbride family.
