Conditions Governing Access

Open to qualified researchers.

Due to the possible combustibility of some of the negatives in boxes 1-3, that portion of the collection is kept in cold storage. Requests to view boxes 1-3 must allow at least two full days for them to thaw.

The 18 glass plate negatives in the collection must not be removed from their four-flap protective enclosures. To view a plate, place it flat on the surface of a lightbox and open its enclosure.
