(MASC STAFF USE) 2-40-19-6Acquisition Information
This material was transferred to WSU Libraries' MASC by Christina Mayor of the Tree Fruit Extension Center on June 22, 2015 and retained as UA2015-08. The donor believed these materials to have been borrowed from the MASC prior to 2006. It was returned by the donor above, but had been borrowed by someone else long since gone. As the MASC can find no records of the items or such a loan in MASC, we are treating this as new accession.
Processing Note
(MASC STAFF USE) Needs reappraisal. Consider processing as manuscripts, rather than archives.
