Hess Collection at University of Toledo                                                                                                           http://www.cl.utoledo.edu/canaday/hess/introduction.html                                          

July 1987 - The Ward M. Canaday Center for Special Collections (University of Toledo) received the Hess Collection, a bequest of Dr. Nicholas Gimbel. Originally, these books were collected by Gimbel's father who was a partner in the New York brokerage firm Birdsall & Hess. Consists of books on the history of a variety of financial markets (stock, commodity, bond, etc.), fiction, biography, humor, and even works denouncing the stock market altogether. Perhaps the strongest area of concentration in this collection is made up of books on "technical analysis."
