The Brodsky Collection of Faulkner books and manuscripts is currently on deposit in the Rare Book Room of the Kent Library on the campus of Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. I wish to acknowledge my appreciation of Jill Faulkner Summers for her continued support by allowing me to publish certain documents written by her father which are either contained in the Brodsky Collection or illuminate those that are and which subsequently will appear in the developing series, Faulkner: A Comprehensive Guide to the Brodsky Collection, edited by Louis Daniel Brodsky and Robert W. Hamblin and published by the University Press of Mississippi. Also, I express my gratitude to Joseph L. Blotner for allowing me to acquire and publish manuscripts of his which form a substantial part of this article.
