content: Lantern slides and correspondence collected and created by Lloyd G. Kirby during his time in the Philippines and related to his lecture concerning the Philippine economy.  Drawing from these photographs, Kirby delivered a lecture on the Philippine economy (circa 1937), a portion of which is available in this collection.  The photographs document architecture and people including Bagobo, Ifugao, Igorot, Kalinga, Moro, and Negrito peoples. Additionally, there are a number of personal slides that depict children and friends in the Philippines or the United States.  The papers include financial records, correspondence, and notes concerning the Philippine economy and the creation and duplication of the photographs.
