Scope and Contents

From the Collection: These photographs were purchased piecemeal, and so constitute an "artificial" collection which can be added to when individual items are purchased or donated. The photographs were arranged by series when indicated, or in a rough chronological order determined by the appearance of mounts and other evidence. For instance, albumen prints were placed before collodion-chloride or gelatin-chloride prints. Captions, whether printed or hand-written, were taken verbatum from the photographs. Any additional notes appear in brackets. The images range from fair to excellent in condition.
