Subject Files, 1945-2004
Scope and Contents
This series contains topical subject files, dating from 1945 to 2004, that document local news and historical events. These files were created by Vance Orchard during the course of his research for newspaper articles, primarily for the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin, as well as several books that he authored. The files often contain newspaper clippings, research notes, and interview transcripts. Several of the files contain floppy disks, which have not yet been analyzed for content.
