Área de contenido y estructura

Alcance y contenido

The John Earl Cutler, MD papers contains 5 ledgers and some loose business-related papers, including two ledger books in which Dr. Cutler recorded patient fees and fees he paid to suppliers. The ledgers cover the years 1918 to 1922. Dr. Cutler recorded the names of his patients and the companies that paid for his services. He also recorded the drugs dispensed and the cost. He rarely mentions symptoms, which he treats. There are some loose receipts for repairs to Dr. Cutler's Franklin automobile and purchases from drug wholesalers. This collection is relatively good shape although the binding of each ledger has been partially destroyed by insects and aging. The paper is in good condition with some foxing and insect damage. The collection consists of about 1 cubic feet (1 document box and 1 oversize box). Two of the ledgers measure 9 inches by 14 inches by 1.5 inches.
