content: The albums were originally arranged by subject, which was marked on the spine. Non-related photos were also included. The albums have been disassembled for conservation purposes, but the original image order has been maintained by numbering the photographs (e.g., 2:100 refers to album 2, image 100). They are arranged in alphabetical order by title.
scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents
content: These albums were compiled in the Photo Lab & the Dept. of Anthropology. The photographs are cyanotypes probably produced as reference prints by the photograph lab. Many of the images have negative numbers marked in the plate. Some of these numbers are still valid; many are not. Negative numbers and any relative prefixes should be checked before placing a print order.
