The Wiliam H. Gass Papers contain clipping files full of articles on Gass. The following is just a small sampling of what is available. One treasure that William and Mary Gass lent us for this exhibit is a scrapbook Gass kept of articles, reviews, advertisements and photographs, starting in 1950 and ending in 1969. We have scanned the entire scrapbook, all of which is available here.
