      The majority of this collection consists of material regarding Dr. Ginzburg's efforts to document his role in the discovery and description of regional enteritis. Correspondence with numerous younger surgeons (folder 2) and with the editor of Gastroenterology (folder 13) document Ginzburg's interest in recording this story for posterity. He would frequently provide correspondents with a set of five exhibits (folders 3 through 7) supporting his claims.
      Dr. Ginzburg's interest in the history of The Mount Sinai Hospital is represented by a small assortment of handwritten notes and by the typescript of an undated speech recounting the Hospital's history from 1905 to 1941. His outstanding reputation as a "surgeon's surgeon" is documented by a copy of the remarks delivered by Dr. Ralph Colp on the occasion of the establishment of the Ginzburg Surgery Fellowship in 1965. The collection also contains an assortment of Dr. Ginzburg's reprints on regional enteritis and various other medical subjects.
