From the Collection: The Nicolaas Moolenijzer Papers span the years 1882-1992 with the bulk of the collection falling in the 1960-1980 time period. The papaers are a collection of research by Moolenijzer on various aspects of sports and physical education globally, with a specific emphasis on the Austrian School of 'Natural' Gymnastics developed by Dr. Margarete Streicher in Vienna during the interwar period.

The papers include articles about Dr. Streicher and her methods, transcripts and recordings of interviews between Moolenijzer and Streicher, essays and articles written by Streicher, and general correspondences between Streicher and Moolenijzer.
