Editorial Copy
The Editorial Copy series contains pre-print version of columns, articles, and stories for a number of different publications. The series is divided into subseries according to which publication the article originally appeared in, including the Detroit News, the Michigan Outdoor Almanac, and columns written for Outdoor Life. The largest subseries contains the editorial copy for the Outdoor Life regional inserts Mr. East edited throughout his career at the magazine. This subseries spans 19 years, from 1961-1978, though there are many chronological gaps in this subseries. The Editorial Copy series focuses on Mr. East's regular editorial duties such as recurring columns and assignments; feature articles for Outdoor Life are located in the Topical Files series and arranged by the subject matter of the article.
