content: A dismantled mixed-media scrapbook concerns Blazek's career and the art world in California in the 1930s and 1940s. Scattered letters are from the Pasadena Art Museum regarding the acceptance of Blazek's sculpture. A family snapshot pictures Blazek, his sister, mother, and nephew. Other photographs are of Blazek with his art and artworks, and of an exhibition at Bullock's-Wilshire. The bulk of the scrapbook consists of printed material including magazine and newspaper clippings, and exhibition announcements and catalogs about Blazek and other artists.
