About this file

This document is an inventory catalog of furniture and artifacts located within the King-Freedman House (KFH). The inventory consists of 15 cataloged items spanning living room, family room, and den areas, with detailed descriptions and family identification numbers for tracking purposes.

The collection includes various furnishings such as upholstered chairs and sofas, wooden tables, display stands, and lighting fixtures, with specific materials, conditions, and provenance noted for each item. Notable artifacts include Object 266, a Stradivarius violin from 1926 with its original black leather case used by Bernice and Mrs. King, containing horsehair bow, rosin, and documentation; Object 544, a Fischer piano with water-stained light wood finish; and Object 95, an upholstered sofa appearing in historical photographs with MLK. Each item is assigned an object number, location within the house, detailed description including materials and condition assessments, and associated family identification codes. The inventory appears to serve as a museum or heritage preservation record for the historic residence and its contents.
