Some original correspondence (most notably with author Negley Farson and Illinois Governor Adlai Stevenson), and five original photographs. The collection also includes an outline for an unpublished book, "Between the Crossfires," which is a compilation of letters and clippings related to Stowe's investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation after Stowe publicly supported the Spanish Republican's cause during the Spanish Civil War. The remainder of the papers are photocopied documents; the originals are housed at the Wisconsin Historical Society.
