Best of the Box: Theodora Mussey Scrapbook
For this week's long overdue Best of the Box, I discovered a lovely scrapbook by Theodora Mussey, a piano teacher at the University of Denver. Compiled between 1900 and 1902, the Mussey scrapbook contains a number of clippings including programs from Denver music recitals and concerts, church bulletins, invitations and travel memorabilia.
Best of the Box: Mildred Biddick
For the second installment of Best of the Box, I found a lovely box full of beautiful pieces of art. Discovered in one tiny acid-free box is our Mildred Biddick collection.

Working in the scanning lab here at the Denver Public Library, I get to see and digitize a lot of beautiful materials.
