Randolph Huntington Correspondence and Ephemera, Accession 11844 , Special Collections Dept., University of Virginia Library, Charlottesville, Va.
Acquisition Information
This collection was purchased by the University of Virginia Library from L & T. Respess, Charlottesville, Virginia, on March 9, 2001.
Biographical/Historical Information
Randolph Huntington was a New York City pharmaceutical manufacturer who moved to central New York state after the Civil War to breed and sell fine saddle and coach horses and who became a leading American authority on the Arabian horse.
Scope and Content Information
This collection consists of correspondence and ephemera, ca. 2,600 items (13 Hollinger boxes, ca. 5 linear feet), 1833; 1876-1908, from the estate of Randolph Huntington. The papers contain letters from breeders and owners of Arab horses, editors and writers for sporting periodicals of the period, and correspondents with others interested in horses; printed ephemera (transferred to the Rare Books Division); and material documenting the publication of Huntington's book, History of Leopard & Linden, General Grant's Arabian Stallions .
Huntington became interested in using the two stallions given to former President U.S. Grant in 1877 by the Sultan of Turkey to breed a national horse for the United States. His breeding project, based on the Grant stallions and mares out of the trotting horse Henry Clay, was not successful but it did bring the value of Arabian blood to the attention of other American horsem*n, most notably Homer Davenport. There are three letters from Daisy Davenport, Homer Davenport's wife, to Huntington in the correspondence.
Highlights of the collection include Huntington's Library of Congress copyright form for his book, signed by A.R. Spofford, the Librarian of Congress; a small group of correspondence from the book's publisher, Lippincott, 1885; and a group of approximately fifty letters from Spencer Borden, author of The Arab Horse (New York, 1906). Much of the correspondence pertains in some way to the history, breeding, raising, racing, or showing of the Arabian horse in the United States.
Arrangement
These letters are arranged alphabetically by the last name of the correspondent, with more frequent correspondents placed in their own folders. The financial papers, news clippings, pedigrees, reviews, and other miscellaneous material has been placed after the correspondence in the last box.
