Artist Entries [Registrar's Office], 1924-1993

 Series

Scope and Contents note

The artist entry forms contain artist contact information; the titles, category and sale price for each object entered; and whether the object was accepted to or rejected from the exhibition. The entry forms date from 1919 to 1993 and are arranged chronologically. From 1919 to 1923, the entry forms are 3x5 cards. From 1924 to 1993, the entry forms are pages of varying sizes. For the artist entries from 1919 to 1922, the cards are arranged alphabetically. For 1923, the cards are arranged by an assigned number from 0 to 6500. The 1924 to 1993 forms are arranged chronologically by year. Within each year, the forms are separated into accepted and rejected entries. Since an artist could submit multiple objects, forms found in the accepted section may also include objects that were rejected. All objects on forms in the rejected section were rejected by the jurors. Within the accepts and rejects there may be subdivisions for first or second round judging, and/or by object category. Forms are filed alphabetically by artist within each division.
