Sub-series 4. Miscellaneous, 1953-2005, undated

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this sub-series contains Alfred Bader’s Miscellaneous files. The files in this sub-series contain materials of a personal nature that were collected by Bader, but do not readily fit elsewhere in the Personal Files series. Materials pertaining to Bader himself, including awards and honorary doctorates he received and artwork of himself and his wife Isabel Bader make up the largest components of this sub-series. A few files concerning miscellaneous subjects that were of personal interest to Bader, including the Ignatz Lieben Prize (which Bader played a key role in reviving) and Polish-American chemist Roald Hoffman are also preserved here.

The contents of the Miscellaneous files consist of a variety of materials. Award certificates, diplomas, and watercolor and ink drawings are the most common items found in this sub-series. Smaller, but noticeable, amounts of book chapter manuscripts, paper manuscripts, and webpage printouts are also present in the Miscellaneous files. Small amounts of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, correspondence, brochures, and photographs are preserved here as well.
