Series VII.A.2. Unpublished sources, 1750-1972, undated
Physical Description: 6.9 linear feet
Scope and Content Note
Vander Poel assembled a variety of unpublished sources for the study of Pompeii and
Campania. These include reproductions of manuscripts from Italian archives, such as
that of the Museo archeologico nazionale di Napoli and the Biblioteca Marucelliana in
Florence, as well as individual manuscript works, both originals and reproductions, by
various travelers and scholars relating to the early history of the excavations.
Of particular interest are the photographic copies of the original excavation reports
from Pompeii held in the archive of the Museo archeologico. The original reports, most
of which remain unpublished, take a variety of forms and have varying titles. Vander
Poel's copies of these reports provide access to an important scholarly resource, but
present certain difficulties for the researcher. Many photographs are blurry and
difficult to read, and most have not been identified. The various groupings presented
below reflect the arrangement of the photographs as found, but they may not reflect
the structure of the original documents. Often groups of photographs have an image
of a title page at the front, but it appears that not all the photographs in the group
belong with that title page.
