Description
Brookings Montgomery (1884-1963) was a local photographer who died in Kansas City at the age of 79. He owned and operated Montgomery Foto Service located at 1519 Wyandotte, Kansas City, Missouri. It is believed that these four boxes of correspondence files came with the Montgomery Photograph Collection purchased by the library in the 1960s. They have been retained in their original filing arrangement. Correspondence is from the 1940s-1960s and is arranged alphabetically by sender. The majority of the letters deal with the following subjects: circus, rodeo/wild west lore, and cowboys. Correspondents include descendants of Jesse James including Stella James, the wife of Jesse James II.
