Correspondence, 1952-2002
- Scope and content:
-
Letters to and from Perlman chiefly concerning personal matters; academic affairs at the universities at which he taught; research for his books and articles; negotiations with publishers; and presentations and attendence at conferences. Letters occasionally include articles submitted to Perlman by other ecomomists for publication or proofreading.
Arranged according to Perlman's original filing system. Correspondence from his tenure at Cornell University and Johns Hopkins University is arranged chronologically by year, then alphabetically by last name. He initially continued this at the University of Pittsburgh, but soon switched to a numerical system, which he also used for the Journal of Economic Literature.
