Maurice Sand papers
The collection consists of six items: a fragment of a story, written by Maurice Sand with corrections by his mother, about a Sioux Indian; four pages of a manuscript for an untitled puppet show; a stereocard depicting the puppets at Nohant; a blank printed invitation to a puppet show; the manuscript of a puppet show entitled "Le Chateau des Andouillers;" and a manuscript of the play "La Chambre de Madame; out la Chambre Bleu." This manuscript is a complete reworking of the original 1874 playscript. The play is expanded to almost three times the original size with numerous additional characters.

There is also a chalk and watercolor scene design for the curtain.
