content: This series includes unbound copies of the annual report of the Mining Department of Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company. There are also printed and bound office copies along with a few condensed versions of the annual report of the Board of Managers to the stockholders. There are several annual reports on appropriations for mine development and operation jobs and also a 1923 annual report of the stockholders of the Lehigh and New England Railroad Company. After 1929, this series is almost exclusively Mining Department reports and reports on appropriations for mine development. The Mining Department reports for 1940 through 1948 include handwritten tables.

Annual Operating Reports and related correspondence, 1945-1949, of the Panther Valley and Summit Hill Water companies is included. A report, dated 1946, by the superintendent of the Panther Valley Water Company on the separation of the property into two general systems is included with the operating report. There is correspondence, 1942-1948, concerning annual reports, specifically, letters from servicemen (previous employees of LCNC) commenting on copies of the annual report that the company sent to them. A small group of annual reports, 1941-1952, from domestic and foreign coal companies and other manufacturers is included.

Reports are generally arranged chronologically.
