The papers of Merle Armitage—an American author and editor best-known as a book designer and as an art director at Look magazine (1948-1953)—include manuscript works, correspondence, and other materials. The varied career of Armitage and his many interests, including art, art collecting, book design, cookery, dance, music, opera, photography, publishing, and railroads, are well-represented in his papers and in the Center’s Library and Art, Photography, and Vertical File collections.

This collection was previously accessible only through a card catalog but has now been re-cataloged as part of a retrospective conversion project. The material remains as originally organized into four series: I. Works, II. Letters, III. Recipients, and IV. Miscellaneous, with materials arranged alphabetically by title or author. See the Indexes for Works, Letters, Recipients, and Miscellaneous in this finding aid to further identify titles of works and correspondent names present in this collection.

This series includes Armitage’s manuscripts for articles, essays, forewords, introductions, notes, prefaces, and speeches; the only two book-length works represented are Operations Santa Fe (1940) and Pagans, Conquistadors, Heroes, and Martyrs (1960). Also present is a projected book of stories for his daughter, Chama.

Miscellaneous filed under Armitage, Merle.

Prior to 1990 when archival cataloging procedures were adopted at the Ransom Center, all manuscript collections were described in a card catalog.

Organization of Collections:

Manuscripts for each author collection were organized into four categories: Works: manuscripts by the author, arranged alphabetically by title; Letters: the author's outgoing correspondence, arranged alphabetically by recipient name; Recipient: the author's incoming correspondence, arranged alphabetically by the author of the letter; and Miscellaneous: all other manuscripts and correspondence, arranged alphabetically by creator.

Materials that did not fit into these categories, such as art, photographs, books, and near-print materials such as newspaper clippings, were dispersed to other Ransom Center collections for cataloging and storage.

Abbreviations Used in Descriptions:

The symbols below were used in combinations. For example ALS means autograph letter signed; Tccms means typed carbon copy manuscript, etc. A = autograph (i.e., handwritten) T = typed S = signed I = initialed Ms = manuscript Mss = manuscripts L = letter FL = form letter N = note D = document C = card PC = post card cc = carbon copy p = page pp = pages l = leaf ll = leaves nd = no date inc d = incomplete date
