Artists - Contracts, Publicity, Photographs, 1986
Scope and Contents
This collection contains materials gathered in the event planning process for the annual Folk ‘n' Blues (also called Folk and Blues) festivals held at Beloit College. Chiefly represented are contracts between the College and the performers, correspondence, news articles, Committee notes, t-shirt designs, and other logistical documents.
There is also a very small number of articles about Leroy Jodie Pierson'70, the organizer of the first Wisconsin Delta Blues Festival, and a St. Louis-based blues guitarist and scholar.
This finding aid does not list oversizel materials, but the Beloit College Archives does hold a number of posters advertising Folk 'n' Blues events. Please contact the Archives for more details.
