Cabinet of Curiosities

Cabinet of Curiosities

Archives and Special Collections celebrated its 50th anniversary with this exhibition of never before-displayed items -- from documents signed by Sir Walter Raleigh to Revolutionary War maps, punk music flyers, and penny dreadfuls.

Also included are formerly secret correspondence from the period leading up to Zimbabwe's 1980 independence and behind the-scenes glimpses into work on the films The Color Purple and Death Becomes Her.

The Cabinet of Curiosities holds all this and much more, with something for everyone.

These images are also used in an online exhibit available here.

Printing is not supported at the primary Gallery Thumbnail page. Please first navigate to a specific Image before printing.
