content: This series documents a portfolio of engravings Calapai created and published in 1949 based on the classic novel, Look Homeward Angel, by Thomas Wolfe. Found here are correspondence, printed materials, writings on Thomas Wolfe by Calapai and others, mailing lists, and proofs for the book jacket. Letters Returned to Sender refer to inquiry letters Calapai mailed in 1958 to collectors and potential buyers in hopes of generating further interest in the Look Homeward Angel portfolio. Correspondence from the 1980s documents a second attempt to republish the prints.
