Series 7: Scrapbooks and Memorabilia, 1933-2003

These scrapbooks visually document Koop's career as Surgeon General as well as his previous work at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. His post-Surgeon General years are represented by a few items covering speeches, special events, awards, and trips. The scrapbooks cover topics like the AIDS report and medical successes such as the separation of conjoined twins through photographs, correspondence, news clippings, and a few magazine articles.... Many of the photographs feature Koop with friends and attendees at official functions. Several of these scrapbooks apparently were constructed by Koop's wife Betty and are titled EFK. This series is arranged alphabetically by scrapbook title.
