Files on MNI fellows

Series consists of a drawer of catalogue cards with information concerning most MNI Fellows from between the institute's opening to the 1970s. Much of this information consists of mailing addresses which were compiled in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and is thus likely no longer accurate. Many of the cards are also accompanied by photographs of the particular Fellow.

Objects

This series consists of objects or artifacts that belonged to Dr. Penfield.

MNI/Personal correspondence

This series contains correspondence between Dr. Penfield and friends and colleagues, as well as social and professional institutions. The series' contents were found at the Montreal Neurological Institute in 2008, and thus, were not included with original correspondence series (Series C) of the Penfield Archive. The records in this series have been catalogued at the item level.

Miscellaneous

This includes copies of the French 'Bulletin de l'Académie Royale de medecine', 'Bulletin de l'Académie nationale de medecine' and 3 editions of the Montreal La Lancette Canadienne journal. The series also includes less than 1 cm of photographs (found in file J 13-1), a framed diploma (file J 2-3) and selections for an exhibit from 1991 by William Feindel.
