The bulk of these files originated (although some were added to later) during William Couper's tenure as VMI Business Executive and Historiographer (1925-1954). Most of the files are not related to Business Office operations. Instead, many relate to VMI historical matters (19th and 20th century) of interest to Couper. In some cases, they are the only or best source of information for specific VMI historical topics, particularly "minor" or obscure ones.
