Origin

 According to Prof. Yamada Yuzo(1902-1996) who worked as an assistant of Mr. Fukuda, these materials were in possession of Prof. Sugimoto Eichi(1901-1952)who was one of Fukuda’s students. After Prof. Sugimoto passing, they were transported to the Library around September 1952.

 All documents were divided into 16 groups and each of them were wrapped with newspaper or Kraft paper in two wooden boxes(D:42 W:79 H:32cm). The catalogue created probably by the same person who wrote something on the wrapping paper lists 14 groups. 15 groups are listed on Mr. Miyajima Hideaki’s notes (1982.9.29).    

These materials have been stored in the Center for Historical Social Science Literature for a long time. It was organized from 2003 to 2004, and simplified version of catalogue and acid-free paper storage boxes were created at that time.
