Series Description
Arranged alphabetically by subject, this series contains W.L. Badger Associates’ proposal files. A large majority of the files in this series were created by W.L. Badger Associates, Incorporated and its corporate predecessor W.L. Badger Consulting Chemical Engineer. Two files apparently created by Walter L. Badger while working as a consultant for Swenson Evaporator Company during the 1930s are also present here.
A majority of the files in this series regard proposals submitted by the W.L. Badger concern and a few of its clients. They provide information about the proposals themselves and the types of consultant projects the firm and its clients sought out and worked on. The files also provide a limited amount of insight into the processes by which the proposals were prepared and submitted.
The contents of the Proposals files consist mainly of proposal manuscripts and copies of proposals. Small amounts of correspondence, blueprints, drawing reproductions, legal documents, notes, and photographs are preserved in these files as well.
