Immediate Source of Acquisition
The collection was part of a larger donation to Northwestern University Library by Elizabeth H. Bennett in 1974, most of which is in the University Archives because it consists of the papers of her husband, Howard F. Bennett, professor of business history from 1946 - 1968.
