Historical/Biographical Sketch

A native Toledoan and friend of the University of Toledo, James Van Orden is an active collector of historical memorabilia related to the Toledo area for more than 50 years.  A former employee at General Motors Hydromatic, his collection focuses on items produced in and/or showcased Toledo, with an emphasis on historical documents and brochures.  Mr. Van Orden collects his items at estate and garage sales, the closing of businesses and flea markets. 


Scope and Content Note

The James Van Orden Collection represents several aspects of Toledo and surrounding communities, including local sports and events, small businesses and industry leaders, municipal government, and the personal lives of Toledoans through postcards, flyers, event programs, advertisements, artifacts, and photographs.  National and international news that would have been of interest to and have had an impact on Toledo residents are also included in headlines of several local newspapers.  Due to the varied nature of media type and topic, this collection is organized alphabetically item by item, with a few materials grouped together.
