Of note, many photographs are copies; date spans reflect dates of original photographs, not the dates of the copies. Also, the photographs contain many duplicate copies; the total quantity of unique photographs is unknown. See FACS Photograph Inventory for a list of individual photographs and photographs that have been grouped together as the result of being created, received, or used in the same activity (i.e., photograph albums, photographs used together in an exhibit, photographs processed together). The list includes information about subjects of photographs, photograph highlights, types of photograph, accompanying text, photograph creators, locations of photographs and condition of photographs. Photograph description was collected by student assistants Emily Cornelius-Field and Marie Sundt. |
