content: Caricature sketches are are mainly of theatrical figures, but also include some politicians (primarily those participating in the Teapot Dome/Sinclair Oil trials, 1923-1929), and a small number of Frueh, Giuliette, and friends. Most caricature sketches are in pencil; many are on tracing paper, and the reverse sides of those on drawing paper/brown paper frequently are covered with graphite for the purpose of transfer or making multiple copies. Caricatures are filed alphabetically by name, and those featuring several cast members are filed by play title.
