label: Scope and Contents
content: Henri F. Pittier was the founding director of the Instituto Físico-geográfico de Costa Rica. It is not known how Hrdlička came into possession of the negatives or the significance of the lot numbers since not all the negatives were from Pittier. Included with the negatives is a 1919 letter from Hrdlička to Pittier asking for further identification of the images, but no reply was found.
