Title A name given to the resource Article of Anne S.K. Brown Military Collection Transfer by The Providence Sunday Journal (1982) Description An account of the resource This is an article from the Sunday Journal in 1982 of Mrs. Brown’s military collection being transferred to the John Hay Library. The Anne S. K. Brown Military Collection is the foremost American collection of material devoted to the history and iconography of soldiers and soldiering, and is one of the world's largest collections devoted to the study of military and naval uniforms. It was formed over a period of forty years by the late Mrs. John Nicholas Brown (1906-1985) of Providence and is still growing. It contains approximately 14,000 printed books, 18,000 albums, sketchbooks, scrapbooks and portfolios, (containing thousands of prints and drawings), and over 15,000 individual prints, drawings and water-colors as well as a collection of 6,000 miniature lead soldiers. Formerly in the Brown family residence (the Nightingale-Brown House, 1791), the entire collection (which was probably the largest private military collection in the world), was presented to Brown University and transferred to Special Collections located in the John Hay Library in 1982.
