| Summary: |
Carl P. Berger (1873-1947) was a prominent early twentieth century Philadelphia architect who designed numerous local structures, including office buildings, houses, apartment buildings, and churches. This collection of his professional papers includes architectural drawings, published reference works, photographs, correspondence, and other notes. The Carl P. Berger collection spans the first half of the twentieth century and highlights Berger's professional work and life, primarily through his architectural drawings, and secondarily through a few reference publications, photographs, and some business correspondence. Spanning five boxes and sixty-three flat files, the materials have been arranged as found into two groups: the first one includes photographs, prints, correspondence, reference materials, and notes; the second group contains architectural drawings, plans, and blueprints. |
