Series: 1. Mayor's Correspondence Files,
1947-1960
: Frank Zeidler’s Correspondence Files are subject files arranged
alphabetically and then chronologically within each folder. The folder
headings are those that were used in the Mayor’s office. These files were
originally two series: “Correspondence” and “Mayor’s File” presumably
representing “inner” and “outer” office files, were found to be overlapping
and extremely redundant and therefore were combined. The activities of the
Mayor’s Office can be deduced from these files. Invitations, speeches,
conferences, and communications with both citizens and other officials
abound. State, national, and even international events are monitored.
Intra-office notations attached to correspondence provide insight into the
function of the office staff.

Series: 2. Project Files, 1944-1962
: The Project Files are under the other part of Frank Zeidler’s office files
system. They were designed by Folke Peterson, Zeidler’s Administrative
Assistant, to record the city’s progress on important issues. The main
headings have been consolidated from twenty-six to eighteen, largely through
grouping housing and highway projects. The main headings and sub-headings
are arranged alphabetically, while the material is chronological in order.
The Project Files contain a much higher proportion of informational material
than do the Correspondence Files. Reports, charts, and minutes predominate
while correspondence with citizens is minimal.
