Description:  This collection contains some of the personal papers of Lincoln S. Conrad. The correspondence pertains to his search for employment in 1929, preceding the stock market crash in October of that year. Although there are some rejection letters, many of the letters invite Mr. Conrad for an interview. The correspondence and enclosed application forms are interesting from the perspective of business history as companies from Philadelphia to Chicago are represented. A copy of a 1933 radio address examines debt, financial policies and legislation during the Great Depression.

Creator:  Conrad, Lincoln S.
