Archives Month Posters
Posters created by MSA Imaging Department using material from the collections.


Finding Aids and Reference Material
This collection includes Archives-created posters and publications as well as unpublished guides that provide explanations of some of the diverse materials held at the Archives. It features a list of Maine men who perished at the infamous Andersonville prison during the Civil War, a history of the wild lands of Maine (which served as a revenue source for the State) and a report on claims regarding island ownership from 1913. Additionally, there is a guide to the Indian Affairs Collection, which was compiled as part of a federally-funded project by the Civil Works Administration in 1934. Although this guide is incomplete, it organizes Wabanaki-related materials found within the Maine Executive Council collection.
