Arrangement
The record group has been divided into seven series: Article Files; Sound and the Fury (Letters to the Editor); Story Research File; Correspondence with Authors and Agents; Staff Correspondence; and Assorted Business Files.
History
Esquire was founded in 1933 by David A. Smart and William H. Weintraub, publishers, and Arnold Gingrich, editor. Advertised as a magazine for men, Esquire published fiction, travel, and fashion news for an affluent audience. The magazine was immediately successful, and Esquire, Inc. expanded into other areas, including publication of Coronet beginning in 1936. Gingrich attracted many of the most prominent authors in America to Esquire, from Hemingway and Fitzgerald in the 1930s to Styron and Mailer in the 1960s.
By the 1960s the magazine had become less fiction-oriented, and published more investigative reporting by such writers as Tom Wolfe and Philip Nobile. In 1977, after Gingrich's death, Esquire, Inc. sold the magazine, and the editorial files were donated to the Michigan Historical Collections.
Collection Scope and Content Note
The records of Esquire Magazine detail the management and operation of one of the nation's principal literary and current events periodical of the middle decades of the twentieth century. The bulk of the material in the collection consists of research and editorial files for each article published in Esquire.
Although the records contained in the Esquire record group cover only a portion of the magazine's development, they can be used in conjunction with the Arnold Gingrich collection, also on file at the Bentley Historical Library to document one of the most influential publishing ventures of the twentieth century.

Title
Article files [series]
The Article Files consists of two dated subseries (1933-1959 and 1960-1977), each arranged alphabetically by the name of author or contributor. These subseries represent a consolidation of the magazine's monthly issue files into an alphabetical sequence. The dated subseries files originally contained, in addition to galleys, drafts of published articles, communications with the editors, research and legal department memoranda, and related correspondence. The unique materials have been retained, but the files have been winnowed of most galleys and some photocopies of article drafts, and brought together alphabetically by name of author. The Article Files series also includes a third subseries, which is a sampling of the monthly issue files.
