Collection Scope and Content Note

From the Collection:

The Sumerian Game collection contains three “scrolls” of teletype printouts of sample gameplay, 39 Kodachrome slides utilized in introducing the game to students, and a research report filed to the Office of Education at the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. (Digital scans of the slides are also part of this collection.) The materials are mainly dated between 1962 and 1965.

The Sumerian Game collection is arranged into three series, one of which has been further divided into subseries. The physical materials are housed in one archival document box; digital files are located on the internal network of The Strong.
