Byron C. Utecht Papers

Byron C. Utecht was a newspaper correspondent for the New York World and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram during the first half of the twentieth century. His wife, Mable Gouldy Stevenson Utecht, was a reporter for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Collection materials include 3 scrapbooks, photographs, a poster, and a Fort Worth bus token. The scrapbooks were compiled and preserved by Byron C. Utecht and pertain to his work as a correspondent in Mexico, especially during the Mexican revolution of 1914, military establishments in Texas during World War I, and politics in Austin, Texas, in the 1940s. They contain correspondence, telegrams, photographs, newspaper articles and clippings, reports, and memorabilia. Additional photographs were collected by Utecht's wife, Mable Gouldy Stevenson Utecht. These photographs were taken in cities around Texas and in Mexico by Skeet Richardson, a U.S. Navy photographer and a photographer for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
