Negatives were housed in ten albums marked A-J. At the front of each album was a handwritten subject index which referred to a numbered sleeve within the album. Each sleeve may have held multiple negatives. Many of the negatives had been removed from the sleeves when received and the photographer's order was recreated. Album U (unknown) is an artifically created 'album' of images which did not fit into any of the ten album categories. |
