content: This subseries consists of McCormick's black and white, photographic negative files and contact sheets.  McCormick designated each file with an "F" number that corresponds to a matching contact sheet with the same "F" number. There is also an "M" and a "C" series of negatives but apparently without corresponding contact sheets.  Not all sleeves contained negatives, and none was dated. Folders and sleeves numbered from 349-352 were empty.  This subseries contains McCormick's original contact sheets and accompanying notes. They are arranged numerically according to McCormick's original numbering. Digital contact sheets are not copies of McCormick's originals but created from his negatives using his numbering system.
