abstract

{"value"=>"Henderson M. (Henderson Malcolm) Wolfe (1873-1951) was a banker who held executive positions in several New York City banks; he also served as Chief Auditor of Accounts in New York City’s Finance Department in 1911. He was born in Muhlenburg, Pennsylvania and graduated from New York University Law School in 1904. The Henderson M. Wolfe scrapbook, dated 1908-1917, contains pasted business correspondence, news clippings, receipts, event programs and other printed ephemera reflecting his career as an executive banker and civil servant in New York City. Materials document Wolfe's association with the Corn Exchange Bank and other institutions, his service in the City’s Finance Department, and his return to the banking industry. Affiliations with charitable, social, and professional organizations are also represented. Letters are chiefly congratulatory messages on his appointments; a few carbon copies of outgoing letters are also present. The scrapbook (1 volume in 1 box) also includes some biographical data and two photographic portraits of his son Henderson W. Wolfe Jr. as a child. Loose items and letters stored in pasted envelopes have been separated to a folder. This is the second of two scrapbook volumes; the first is not found"}
