| Scope and content |
The collection is organized into several major series, including campaign files, Victory Fund files, Campaign Finance Division files, Democratic National Committee files, N.C. Democratic Party files, general files, appointment files, and personal papers. The organizational structure is in keeping with Shuping's filing system and has been retained largely in his original order. Personal files (1920-1969) include correspondence, reports, financial records, clippings, photographs, election returns, and other materials pertaining to North Carolina and national Democratic Party political campaigns including those of Al Smith, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Josiah W. Bailey, and the work of the Democratic National Committee. The collection also includes a copy of "The Shuping genealogy collection" by J. Ross Shuping as well as "Resource guide (2006) to the life and accomplishments of Clarence Leroy Shuping," by Jefferson Shuping, Jr. |
