Custodial History
The chain of custody of this collection is unknown; however, the contents of the collection, especially the letters, suggest that most and perhaps all of the items were saved by composer Remi Gassmann. Of the telegrams and signed letters, these are addressed to Gassmann. Letters or telegrams written by Gassmann are personal copies. Letters in the collection unrelated to either Ruth Page or Billy Sunday concern Gassmann's interests, such as performance of his music. Letters initiated by attorney L. Arnold Weissburger, who represented Gassmann in the dispute over the music score, are apparently carbon copies for Gassmann.
