The Huebner collection consists mainly of annotated manuscript copies of only a few of Huebner's many published works. There are the manuscripts for his survey and projections concerning the Panama Canal (1936) and his survey of foreign trade and the U.S. Merchant Marine (1937?). In addition to the annotated manuscript copies of his studies of the railroad freight service (1925-1926) and of U.S. foreign trade (1952?), the galley proofs are also filed with the papers. Some miscellaneous manuscript fragments are arranged in a separate folder.
For the period 1951 to 1955, the papers include some class syllabi and a few examinations used in Huebner's classes at the Wharton School of Finance. The syllabi outline a number of graduate courses he gave in marketing and commerce. There is one Master of Business Administration examination, and there are several final examinations for different courses.
A large portion of his published “Traffic Lessons” are included in this collection. These appeared in a 52-part series in the 1922-1923 issues of the periodical The Traffic World. More than half of the lessons were saved with Huebner's papers. These lessons were intended to introduce the transportation world to the railway system of the 1920s in the United States. They were reprinted by the periodical to be distributed separately; almost all copies in these papers come from the reprinted series.
None of Huebner's personal papers are included in this collection. A profusion of lecture notes -- fragmentary, disorganized, and in very poor condition -- were offered back to the donor, at his request.
