Leopold Stein Collection 1802-1968

The Leopold Stein collection was formed from the consolidation of two smaller collections, each of which are represented by a separate series in this collection. Contained in this collection are the personal documents and correspondence of Leopold Stein, as well as some material pertaining to Aron Wolfssohn, teacher of Giacomo Meyerbeer and Michael Beer. Personal papers of Leopold Stein are located in both series of the collection. Among the documents in Series I are a published memorial essay on Stein and volumes of his poetry. Series II holds several biographical articles, consisting of three published pieces and one manuscript. Another item of note here is a diary. Stein's family correspondence will be found in Series I, while professional correspondence is located in Series II. Papers of Aron Wolfssohn are placed in Series II. For the most part, these documents consist of correspondence, especially that which focuses on the education of members of the Beer family.Series I: Leopold Stein Collection, 1837-1883.1/1 Documents undated, 1859-1880, 19681/2 Book of Poems 18371/3 Book of Poems – Collected by Sidonie Dann 1883Series II: Machol-Stein Collection, 1802-1910, 1968.1/4 Personal undated, 1838-1910, 19681/5 Personal – Diary 18301/6 Correspondence 1837-18701/7 Aron Wolfssohn 1802-1831OS 92 Aron Wolfssohn – Correspondence - Aloys Wilhelm Schreiber 1811 (copy in 1/7)The finding aid for this collection is available online.Photographs removed to Photograph Collectiondigitize
