The Securities and Exchange Comission Historical Society's virtual museum and archive provides a great deal of information and hosts a large amount of primary source material. A timeline presents major events in SEC and US history since the stock market crash through the 1980's. There are a number of papers and publications from individuals and the government available for download in a PDF format, and several hundred photos organized by person. Extensive oral histories with more than 25 individuals and more than 5 roundtables are available as transcripts, audio files, or in some cases video files. The online programs hosted by the historical society are produced frequently and archived on the site as well.
