OVERVIEW

SCOPE AND CONTENTS
The majority of the records are client files documenting the firm's work with a wide variety of businesses and nonprofit organizations, largely in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. The subject files concern the firm's administrative matters, as well as Braman's involvement in public relations professional groups. The scrapbooks and photographs document clients and the firm's products. The earlier files document Braman's work as a publicist for the Marine Corps (1941-1944) and his work for other public relations firms.
ARRANGEMENT
The filing system of the Braman Collection has been kept substantially in its original form. That is, original folders and their titles have been retained. The processor devised the basic organization scheme of the collection, and where necessary, reorganized the papers within the various component groups.
A minimum of weeding was done by the processor. Only the obvious duplicate and printed materials were removed. Considerable printed materials were retained, even though they seemed marginal.
| These documents are organized into the following sections: | ||
| General Files. | ||
