We recently added several great collections from Boise State University!
From historic music manuscripts to photos from 1950s Kabul, here are some of the highlights:
Peter Beemer Music Manuscript
In the 1860s Pete Beemer created handwritten musical scores of songs performed by him and his band in the mining camp of Warren, Idaho. This collection contains a digitization of his manuscript along with video of modern performances of several songs.
