"Estimate of what would have been the Amount of Game taken if there had been a 100% Return - 1930" - Location and Author unknown

This series contains finished works of various natures and notes to certain public lectures (1918-1959, undated) that Alfred Gross gave over the course of his life. The lectures range in focus from highly scientific discussions of birds presented to the American Ornithologists' Union to general bird observations presented to the Rotary Club of Brunswick, Maine. The notes vary in style and detail from typed speeches to handwritten note cards. Some of the lecture notes are accompanied by slide lists. Also included in the series is a folder of correspondence directly related to Gross' lectures (1921-1927, undated). They are from bird and social clubs all over New England, as well as carbon copies of letters from Gross, and discuss invitations to lecture, equipment requirements, payment, and appreciation. The printed works include final typed drafts of articles written by Gross and colleagues, submitted for publication and returned to the authors upon request. There are also copies of the printed publications in which Gross' work appears as well as works that he referenced or followed with interest. Newsletters and reports released by bird club organizations and state and federal offices are also included in this series. A small number of folders include printed ephemera such as advertisements, national park information booklets, and event programs.
