content: Artworks consist of pencil and painted sketches for animal sculpture, baptismal fonts, busts, and memorials. The bulk of Peabody's correspondence relates to the purchase of supplies and ceramic makeup and production. Letters include receipts for materials and are from Arthur D. Little, Inc., the Garden Club of American, and John Tiranti and Co. Photographs depict Amelia Peabody, her studio in Dover, Massachusetts, and students and models labeled "at art school" in 1926. One of the students is likely Peabody. Printed materials include two exhibition catalogs, one of which is annotated with sales information. Also found are photographs of works of art. A report from Arthur D. Little, Inc. relates to examining materials for creating sculpture and includes a sample of silica.
