Box 9: 1954 Campaign for Governor, 1954
Scope and Contents
Box 9 consist of a series of mailing list that former Georgia governor M.E. Thompson used during his campaign and after his term. All of the documents are dated during the mid 1950’s , but the ones that are not dated are simply list of people that Governor Thompson wrote to for support during his campaign. All of the documents in this box are originals and should be handled delicately. Some notable names that appear in this box are of course M.E. Thompson, but also Eugene F. Greneker, Paul T. Harbor, William Lester, and Jean Wadsworth. Some notable organizations are the Disabled American Veterans, the American Legion, The Valdosta Press-The Valdosta Daily Times, and the Thompson for Governor Campaign.
