content: This series consists of typescript and handwritten correspondence (inquiries made by Jerome Lemelson to companies and manufacturers), notes and patent application materials, sketches, and product/vendor literature. The majority of materials are typescript specifications for patent applications which describe how an invention is made and used, and the best mode of operation of the claimed invention and the inventor's claims. The materials are arranged alphabetically. Reference patents found in this series are for other inventors, not Jerome Lemelson.
