The originals, and most probably the negatives are with the donor as well. OSA only received the paper prints with captions, and digitized the entire collection in year 2018.

Contents Summary

An elegantly dressed woman is sitting behind a desk. She is cutting out an article from a newspaper. On the desk there are several other, partly Hungarian, newspapers, magazines and xerox copies and a set of stamps. Behind her there are shelves with binders. On her left there is a window with a plant on the sill. The Research Institute of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty monitored not only its target countries' broadcast operations and their programs but also their printed press. To make the information gathered from these sources accessible for the analysts and editors working at the Radios, they have created keyword systems and were collecting and filing articles related to the various subjects from the 1950s till 1995. Thus RFE/RL created a thematically structured press clipping archives consisting of, inter alia, Subject Files and Biographical Files. The paper based hard copy of the press clipping archives, in hard copy is accessible at Blinken OSA Archives since 1995. Cf. HU OSA 300-1-8/1:79, HU OSA 300-1-8/1:81.
