collection thus preserved is today regarded as among the finest accumulations of 19th Century radical ephemera in the United States. Death and legacy Joseph Labadie died on October 7, 1933, in Detroit, Michigan, at the age of 83. He donated the vast majority of manuscripts and ephemera acquired in his lifetime to the collection at the University of Michigan Library, a deed he viewed as his primary legacy.
