  Joe Wheelwright ‘Red Book’
The Red Book was given to Joe Wheelwright Christmas 1972. It became the scrapbook that contained all his writings.		  
     
The collection includes correspondence with Jungian therapists in San Francisco and elsewhere in the U.S. and internationally. Numerous other documents date to the 1960’s when Joseph served President of the International Association for Analytical Psychology, extensive drafts and transcripts of speeches and articles, interviews and original drafts of books and articles authored by the Wheelwrights.

The collection contains two series.  Series 1 (Boxes 101-124) includes material acquired before 1998 and is described in great detail; Series 2 (boxes 125-174) consists of material that was acquired after 1998 and is described in less detail. Correspondence in the collection includes original documents from C.G. Jung, Toni Wolff, Marie-Louise von Franz, James Kirsch, Joseph Henderson, Michael Fordham, Gregory Bateson, Erik Erikson, and Joseph's brother George Wheelwright, a co-founder of the Polaroid Corporation.

Joseph's writings include drafts of numerous lectures on the subjects of geriatrics, psychological types, the Student Mental Health Clinic at the University of California at Berkeley, the Gray-Wheelwright Type Test, and the book St. George and the Dandelion: Forty Years of Practice as a Jungian Analyst (1982).

Jane's writings include lectures on masculinity and femininity and the books The Ranch Papers: a California Memoir (1988); The Long Shore: a Psychological Experience of the Wilderness (with her daughter Lynda Wheelwright Schmidt) (1991); and Death of a Woman (1981), about psychotherapy with a terminal cancer patient.

Also held in the collection are interview transcripts about the Jefferson Collective (a commune in Vermont during the 1970's), the history of the Hollister Ranch, Lincoln Steffens (a famous Socialist journalist and an uncle of Jane's), psychotherapy in the United States, and her experience of studying to be a Jungian analyst during the 1930's.

Sound recordings in the collection include audiotapes of lectures by Jungians and lectures and interviews by the Wheelwrights, and an extensive collection of Dictaphone belts (many with typed transcripts) used by Jane for her correspondence and writings. Photographs include pictures of Jung, Marie-Louise von Franz, Mary Briner and others.
