This artificial collection was created to make these materials accessible to researchers and staff, as previously they were scattered and unrecorded.
The Collection is comprised of seven series based on format: CNE General Printed Material, CNE Exhibitor Promotional Material, Off-Season Printed Material, CNE-Related Printed Material, Invitations and Menus, Sheet Music, and Newsletters. Within each series, items are catalogued at the file level and are arranged chronologically.
