The Papers document the latter part of Slam Stewart's career, during his appointment at SUNY Binghamton. Stewart gave many concerts and lectures during this time – locally, nationally and internationally. He also played in many jazz festivals. The collection includes photographs, music, correspondence, and sound recordings from this time, and highlights the collegial nature of Stewart's career. Fellow musicians such as Peter Appleyard, Jack Martin (a.k.a., "Ludwig Sigmund von Christ"), Bucky Pizzarelli, Benny Goodman, Slim Gaillard, Major "Mule" Holley, Carrie Smith and Dick Hyman (among many others) appear in several series in the collection.
