These include photos from outside New York City; still lifes of objects; details of cars, carriages and other vehicles; food cart close-ups; miscellaneous signage; particular artworks in museums; images of buildings, people, and other scenes that tend more to the stylized rather than documentary, such as views taken through rain-drizzled windows; and other varied images. The series and the specific photos to place in it was established by the processing archivist.
