{"value"=>"<p>Contain very sparse correspondence and publicity files. Such documentation as there is deals primarily with Wallace's last few years abroad and the period immediately after his 1964 return to the United States. With one exception, the files of legal papers are similarly non-representative of the scope of Wallace's career: they cover only 1962-1964. Appropriately enough, the one set of files that either achieve or approach comprehensiveness are those related to copyright protection. These latter files consist of formal registration with both U.S. and foreign agencies and the less formal but thoroughly legitimate technique of \"protection\" through self-addressed registered mail. The sampling of \"registered-mail\" envelopes in the files document Wallace's address changes in the U.S., Europe and Israel. All works for which he provided such \"protection\" carry a penciled notation to that effect. The Day Books, a combination of some 25 desk and pocket memo pads furnish a detailed look at Wallace's daily life during the 1960s. Frequently re-worked budgets and shopping lists speak to economic concerns that also surface in notations for songs, poems and essays. Addresses, appointment reminders, laundry lists and performance notes follow one another in a completely undifferentiated order.</p>"}
