I'm always interested in behind-the-scenes accounts of archives. The Los Angeles Times has an interesting article up about a collection at the National Archives that is not open to the public: Jacqueline Kennedy's clothes from 22 November 1963. It seems the famous pillbox hat is missing, perhaps in the custody of her former maid. The writer has done a nice job on the details, particularly about securing a retroactive deed of gift for this heart-breaking material.
