- This collection contains files for each address that was researched toward the publication of the "Thematic Survey of Early Automotive History in Lansing, Michigan from 1890 to 1930" by the Mannik & Smith Group, Inc. The survey, which was published in July of 2003, was contracted by the City of Lansing. Supporting area groups included the Stewardship Community Board of the MotorCities-Automotive National Heritage Area, the Lansing Historic District Commission, the Lansing Planning Office and the State Historic Preservation Office, among others. Fifty-two sites comprising 60 buildings were surveyed. Twenty-six of those were determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. All 52 sites were listed in an ANHA database (not publicly available as of June 2017). This collection is organized by street address. Within each file, the following items are usually contained: -Photocopies of site from Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps -Photocopies of City of Lansing Assessor records - property and real estate inventory detailed files -Photocopies of newspaper clippings, most from the Capital Area District Libraries' biographical and subject clippings files -Printouts from the ANHA Resource Site Data database for each site Occasionally a file will also contain: -Photocopies from Capital Area District Libraries' Stebbins Real Estate Collection -Handwritten original and photocopied notes from Mannik & Smith research staff -Photocopied photographs from City of Lansing Assessor -Photocopied journal or magazine articles about businesses or individuals from a variety of sources Within the files, there is a great deal of overlap and duplication due to the complex history of automotive and related businesses in the Lansing area.
