The Kenneth Allen Papers consist of notebooks and account books created before, during and after Allen's attendance at R.P.I.

This collection consists mainly of eight scrapbooks, sketchbooks and journals kept during the course of Babcock's life from school days to the latter part of his career. The scrapbooks contain a variety of items: obituaries, math notes, short stories, expense accounts, Babcock's artist talents, report cards, clippings of love and romance and photographs of his time at work in Chester, P.A.
