The collection consists of early 20th century papers that belonged to Isidor Bronfin or were collected shortly after his death. Most of the papers relate to Bronfin's medical work in tuberculosis treatment. Among them are photographs; correspondence; a U.S. naturalization and education certificate; and a scrapbook containing newspaper clippings, telegrams, and documents about Isidore Bronfin and a few newspaper articles about his son Leon. The papers date from 1911 to 1939.
