"Mr. Bromsen amassed the "finest collection of manuscript and iconographic items" in the United States related to Simon Bolivar, a leader in the struggle for South American independence, said Norman Fiering, director and librarian at the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University. Mr. Bromsen donated his Bolivar collection to the library in 2000."
