Election of Juanita M. Kreps to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 1988 May 11

The second series is the most diverse in the collection. Most of the items were special honors that Juanita Kreps received in the form of plaques, framed certificates and legal documents, and hand-drawn political cartoons. Additional materials include ephemera, newspaper clippings, notes for a slide show of her 1978 trip to India and the Soviet Union, and copies of six published works that she authored or co-authored. In order to conserve storage space, most plaques were photographed and paper printouts retained. A few plaques were retained as documentary artifacts for exhibition purposes. All framed certificates and legal documents were removed from their frames to aid with preservation, access, and conservation of storage space.
