The collection contains collected papers, photographs, printed
materials and clippings of Joseph Matthew Heiser Jr. (1897-1987), a well-known
Houston naturalist who served in both World Wars and was employed by the Texas
Company as an accountant. His father, Joseph M. Heiser Sr., had been chief
clerk of Harris County Tax Assessing and Collecting Department for many years
and was the first Superintendent of Parks.
The collection mainly reflects Joe Heiser's interest in nature and the
preservation of the environment, primarily in Texas. In 1923 he started the
Outdoor Nature Club of Houston (ONC) which is still active, and was
instrumental in the acquisition of the Little Thicket Nature Sanctuary (LTNS)
near Evergreen, Texas. He was a well-known ornithologist and through the ONC
aided the Audubon Society in Texas until the Texas branch was formed. He was
correspondent and friend of many well-known naturalists, including Professor
H.P. Attwater, Harry Oberholser, Robert A. Sell, Robert A. Vines and Professor
George Williams. He was an active member of many national wildlife and
conservation organizations. He was a board member of the Houston Zoological
Society. He owned property and had particular interest in San Jacinto County
and the Coldspring area. He was an active member of St. Joseph's Catholic
Church and participated in activities in the Old 6th Ward.
The large collection of newspaper clippings covering over 60 years
reflect his diverse interests, including the circus, palmistry, horoscopes and
all sorts of puzzles, as well as a range of wildlife interests and zoos.
The collection consists of family documents, personal correspondence,
his own writings and manuscript notes, papers and correspondence relating to
the ONC and LTNS, including his dispute with the organization over policy and
management in the 1960's. There are ONC publications, brochures by R.A. Sell,
papers relating to the Big Thicket Association, The Texas Water Commission, the
Houston Zoological Society and various societies to which he belonged. There
are collected writings and quotations, Texas and national nature periodicals,
clippings, 291 photographs of himself, his friends and associates, wildlife and
landscapes, one scrapbook, some autographed books and a few personal items.

Inscribed: "10-21-63 - The drawings, like those of Audubon, are
more imaginative than accurate. But there is a certain whimsical appeal in
their freedom of line and quaint coloring. I could not resist the book when I
saw it, on the special sale counter of the Sam Houston Book Shop in Houston. In
a few cases, at least, the text is as fanciful as the illustrations. JMH
Jr." |
