The collection documents the original Chicago production and productions in La Jolla (1989), London (1989), and on Broadway (1990). The collection contains clippings, programs, letters to Elaine Steinbeck, and photographs of Steinbeck at events. Letters are from Steppenwolf staff, director Frank Galati, actors performing in the production, and other friends and associates of Steinbeck. The collection also contains artwork by actors Ron Crawford and Terrance MacNamara, inspired by the play.
