Administrative InformationProvenanceThe archives of the
Institute of the Aerospace Sciences in the American Institute of
Aeronauticsand Astronautics were given to Library of Congress by
the American Institute of Aeronautics andAstronautics in 1964.
Additions were received in 1965 and 1966. The archives were
organizedbeginning in 1939 and discontinued in 1962. The records
include material donated to the institute'sarchives by private
collectors.Processing HistoryThe archives of the Institute of the
Aerospace Sciences in the Library of Congress were processedin
1966. Revisions were made to the collection in 1986, after
scrapbooks relating to the Wrightbrothers were microfilmed, and
again in 1994. A portion of the collection was rehoused in 2003,but
the organization of the material remained unchanged. Although the
finding aid and containerlist were revised to indicate the current
housing, the container numbers noted in the microfilm ofthe Wright
brothers scrapbooks reflect the original housing.TransfersPrints,
drawings, posters, photographs, and other illustrated material
pertaining to Bela ClaraLandauer in the collection have been
transferred to the Prints and Photographs Division where theyare
identified as part of these papers.

Scope and Content NoteThe American Institute of Aeronautics and
Astronautics was formed by the merger in 1963 of theInstitute of
the Aerospace Sciences and the American Rocket Society. The
material contained inthis collection comes from the aeronautical
archives of the former Institute of the AerospaceSciences. The
archives was first formerly organized in 1939 and was discontinued
in 1962, by whichtime it contained one of the most extensive files
of aeronautical material in the world. When it wasdiscontinued, the
Smithsonian Institution, the Connecticut Historical Society, and
the Library ofCongress received various segments of the collection.
The collection is organized in six series:Biographical Files,
Aircraft Company Files, Miscellany, Scrapbooks, Material Removed
fromScrapbooks after Microfilming, and Oversize.The material given
by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics does not
containrecords of the institute itself. It represents only
aeronautical subject files collected between theyears 1939 and
1962. These information files are supplemented by scrapbooks and a
smallmiscellaneous group of papers. The files run the gamut of
aeronautical history from theMontgolfiers and the first balloon
flight to the development of the modern air force. The
collectioncontains two types of information files, biographical and
corporate.The Biographical Files consist of newspaper clippings,
articles, biographical questionnaires,printed matter, and
occasional primary material. Among the prominent files are those
for HenryHarley Arnold, Thomas S. Baldwin, Louis Bleroit, Richard
Evelyn Byrd, Clarence Chamberlain,Octave Chanute, Glenn Hammond
Curtiss, James Harold Doolittle, Amelia Earhart, C. G. Grey,Frank
Hawks, Henry Allen Hazen, William S. Henson, Maurice Holland,
Howard Hughes(1905-1976), John Jeffries, Charles Edward
Kingsford-Smith, Alexander Klemin, Roy Knabenshue,S. P. Langley,

William Mitchell, Wiley Post, Eddie Rickenbacker, Alberto
Santos-Dumont, T. O. Selfridge,Alexander P. De Seversky, Igor Ivan
Sikorsky, A. Leo Stevens, J. T. Trippe, Edward Pearson
Warner,Orville Wright, and Wilbur Wright.Items of unusual interest
in the Biographical Files include a reproduction of a Thomas
Jeffersonletter of 1822 concerning the future prospects of air
flight in the United States; letters by EdmondCharles Genet dated
January 15, 1826, and May 7, 1827; a manuscript scrap by Walt
Whitmanconcerning aviation written in his hand about 1850; a letter
from Victor Hugo sent out of Paris byballoon during the siege of
the Paris Commune in 1870; a letter by Theodore Roosevelt to
WalterWellman dated December 9, 1904, concerning a possible flight
to the North Pole; a 1917 letterabout ballooning from Assistant
Secretary of the Navy Franklin D. Roosevelt to Roy Knabenshue;and
the completed application form by Charles Lindbergh for the $25,000
Orteig Prize awarded tothe first person to fly nonstop from New
York to Paris.The records include material donated to the
institute's archives by private collectors. Fiveindividual donors
account for a majority of the source material in this collection.
At least part ofthe collections of Bella Clara Landauer, T. S. C.
Lowe, Hart O. Berg, Charles A. Lindbergh, andLester D. Gardner are
interfiled in the Biographical Files. In most cases it is
impossible to assignindividual items to specific donations.An
especially interesting file is that of T. S. C. Lowe, the chief
aeronaut of the Army of the Potomac,containing his personal papers,
1859-1943, covering a variety of Civil War and late
nineteenth-century ballooning. The file contains correspondence
with such Civil War figures as Secretary ofWar Edwin McMasters
Stanton, General George Gordon Meade, and the first secretary of
theSmithsonian, Joseph Henry. There is a small file of Charles A.
Lindbergh papers concerned mainlywith the manuscript "Flying Around
the North Atlantic" written by his wife, Anne MorrowLindbergh, and
published in the National Geographic Magazine in 1934. There is
also a file ofcorrespondence between Charles A. Lindbergh and the
National Geographic Society for the years1934-1935. Bella Clara
Landauer's contributions to the aeronautical archives are
interspersedthroughout the Biographical Files and Scrapbooks
series. She donated material on suchaeronautical figures as Octave
Chanute, William S. Henson, Auguste Piccard, and JohnStringfellow.
The Hart O. Berg collection consists of scrapbooks of newspaper
clippings relating tothe Wright brothers.The last major contributor
to the archives was Lester D. Gardner. His direct contribution
ofpersonal scrapbooks and a collection of aeronautical Christmas
cards is small, but Gardner'sindirect contributions as executive
secretary of the institute form the backbone of the collection.He
organized, supervised, and helped arrange the archives, and his
organization of the materialpervades the entire collection.The
Aircraft Company Files are composed almost entirely of printed
matter and newspaperclippings with very little primary
documentation. The Scrapbook series includes a variety
ofaeronautical material. There is a unique collection of
aeronautical Christmas cards arrangedchronologically from the 1920s
to the 1940s. Container 177 has two scrapbooks that
containclippings from the eighteenth century, and a scrapbook
labeled "Rare aeronautical manuscriptmaterial" in Container OV 75
has clippings and broadsides dating to the year 1804.
Arrangement of the PapersThe collection is arranged in six
series:
• Biographical Files, 1784-1962• Aircraft Company Files•
Miscellany, 1804-1932• Scrapbooks, 1783-1955• Material Removed from
Scrapbooks after Microfilming
