  • "The collection is made up of 59 ephemera items related to John Muir including pamphlets, brochures, newspaper clippings, magazine clippings, programs, poetry, and copies of Muir's writings and sketches. The material was collected by J. Marshall Watkins while he was researching John Muir. Authors include Ed Ainsworth, William Frederic Badé, Francis M. Fultz, Herbert W. Gleason, Bailey Millard, John Muir, and J. Marshall Watkins. Other subjects include Muir's conservation work in California including his involvement with the Hetch Hetchy Valley, Kings Canyon National Park, and Yosemite National Park. There is one pamphlet entitled "Redwood Mountain," published by the John Muir Association as well as a leaflet printed by the California Conservation Council regarding the life of John Muir. Many of the brochures are for events related to John Muir such as "John Muir Day" in San Francisco in 1939, a dedication of a Muir memorial park in Wisconsin, and a lecture entitled "John Muir Trails." Also included are offprints and flyers concerning the proposed John Muir-Kings Canyon National Park, and nine color reproductions of scenes in Yosemite National Park."
