scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents
content: This series is comprised primarily of a set of binders that Prelorán had compiled that include:  newspaper and magazine articles about Prelorán, reviews of his films, announcements of film screenings, film festival programs, awards, field notes, correspondence, and ephemera. Although Prelorán referred to these as 'press binders' they are more like scrapbooks due to the diversity of materials included.

Press clippings are primarily in Spanish and English, although there are several European publications as well. The correspondence overlaps with that of other series. Some notable correspondents included here are: Fondo Nacional de las Artes, Guggenheim Foundation, Richard Hawkins, Margaret Mead, Edward Larocque Tinker, and Colin Young. Ephemera includes airplane tickets, film festival passes, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences award nomination certificate for Luther Metke at 94, and the invitation, menu, and other items from a 1985 White House State Dinner attended by Prelorán.

Please request the appendix from the archivist for an item-level inventory for this series.
