- Scope and content:
-
The materials in this subseries vary widely and serve to document general subjects related to Doris Duke that are not documented in the other subseries. It is the only subseries that includes materials from Doris Duke's childhood such as her school composition books, homework assignments, and glossy photographs/scrapbooks of magazine clippings of actors and actresses from the 1920s. Other materials included are notes and lyrics written by Doris Duke, original dress designs from the House of Paquin for Doris Duke, Playbills from shows attended by Doris Duke, and newspaper clippings organized by Doris Duke that were of interest to her. Inside these folders are the spines of the binders (paper) with her handwriting on how they were separated. Of interest is the "Me" binder (folder) which contains clippings about Doris Duke.
