Featuring a collection from the Estate of A.J. Marino of Weehawken, New Jersey. Mr. Marino left behind several inventory notebooks (spanning from the 1930's through 1960's) as well as correspondences to historical and other noted individuals, shedding light not only on his passion for collecting but also his interest in American history and politics.
