Scope and content
Fonds consists of assorted passenger lists, guest lists, postcards, correspondence, and invitations relating primarily to voyages to and from Manila, dating from 1921 and 1930 to 1938. There are also two United States Philippine Islands passports issued in 1931 and 1934 to Ina Elizabeth Olnick (born in Chicago 25 November 1899), accompanied by children: Benjamin S., Jr., Van M., and Barbara Lucille. The letters numbered 0010 and 0011 survived the bombing of Manila in World War II and were brought by the donor's father to Seattle in 1945 after his internment by the Japanese at Santo Tomas University, Manila, Philippine Islands, from 1942 to 1945. Also, a framed souvenir coloured drawing of the Canadian Pacific Steamship Empress of Japan.
