The Fundación John Boulton was established in 1950 as a privately funded institution sponsored by the Casas Boulton of Caracas, Valencia, and Maracaibo. For many years, the Fundación functioned in the Villa Espalmador in El Paraíso, but it has recently moved to new quarters in Torre El Chorro, Avenida Universidad, in the center of Caracas. Founded to facilitate research on the history and culture of Venezuela, the Fundación has assembled a strong collection covering the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Moreover, the collection is constantly being augmented by purchases, exchanges, and donations of additional material. The material available in the Fundación is found in the library, in the various archives, and in two museums.
1. The mailing address of the Fundación has not changed. It remains Apartado Postal 929, Caracas 1010–A, Venezuela.
2. Most of the Maracaibo material is still in Maracaibo.
3. The post-1940 material is not available to researchers.
4. The Archivo Guzmán Blanco, which is on deposit in the Fundación, is not the complete Guzmán Blanco archive.
