Photographs 18, Item 3. Hand colored – we want milk.
Scope and Contents
Contains facsimiles of daguerreotypes, tintypes, other photographs, advertisements, school yearbook covers, handwritten letters, highway maps and artwork. The items are representative of those contained in a number of much larger collections, and they highlight some of the more attractive items in the larger collections. The collection is broad in scope but limited in that it has no motion picture film or video representing the time period covered, the early twentieth century into the 1950s. A briefer version of this collection is available online through the GRPL web site. The material in this collection does not include material on the scrapbooks in the case. Item level descriptions used here are brief references and not full descriptions of the items; for better information on the items, see the original collection from which it was taken. For items still unprocessed, see the archivist.
