Dupee and Barbara "Andy" Dupee throughout six decades, many by notable friends such as Mary McCarthy, Lillian Hellman, Edward W.

Dozens of condolences sent to Mrs. Dupee are included, as well as readings from the F. W. Dupee memorial. Many of the letters refer to professional matters, and attest to Dupee's work no less than to his social ties.

Series IV: Collected books, 1778-1983, bulk 1920s-1979

Series IV provides access to over 100 items from Dupee's library. Most of the items are annotated and/or signed, and could be used in tracking Dupee's work processes as well as his literary relationships. This series is divided into two subseries: one of library books, the other highlighting Dupee's collection of socialist literature, most of which were published in New York in the 1930s.

Subseries IV.1: Fiction, nonfiction, poetry and drama, annotated and/or signed, 1778-1983 [Bulk dates: 1920s-1979], 1778-1983

Subseries 1 includes books from Dupee's library. Their interest for researchers lies in the fact that most are annotated by Dupee, and many are signed by the authors. The titles range from classical nineteenth century novels to twentieth century poetry and prose, memoirs by colleagues, and literary and cultural criticism. The oldest item, a collection of fifteenth century poetry, dates to 1778, but most of the books were published in the twentieth century.
