{"value"=>"<p>Only two of the Pforzheimer Collection's Joanna Baillie manuscripts were bought by the Collection's founder, first Carl H. Pforzheimer (1879-1957). Both items were letters purchased in the early 1950s, and both were somewhat incidental acquisitions. The letter to Mary Hunter, Irish autograph collector, came with a cache of correspondence solicited by Hunter from various authors of the period. The letter to Miss Murray came with purchases from the sale of the autographs of Hallam Murray (1854-1934), of the John Murray family publishing firm.</p> <p>Between 1957 and 1986, eight Joanna Baillie letters, including the two mounted within the Martin Archer Shee Autograph Album, were acquired under the auspices of the Pforzheimer Foundation. Since the Pforzheimer Collection's 1986 arrival to The New York Public Library, seven additional Joanna Baillie letters have been added. Because the Pforzheimer Collection collects actively, its holdings in Joanna Baillie manuscript material may grow in the future as items become available for acquisition.</p>"}
