The Moss Tent Works Records document the early professional activities of the company’s founder, Bill Moss; the development and iterations of the Moss Tents company; the designs and marketing of Moss products; and formal company records, including sales and financial documents. The records are significant for documenting the development of camping and recreational tent equipment and technology. This collection also contains a large number of photos, slides, negatives, transparencies, and video cassettes. Many were used to create advertising and publicity materials for Moss Tent Works, and later, Moss Inc. Tents and exhibition structures serve as the main subject, but also included are images of Moss company staff and employees, warehouses, as well as the design and construction of products.
