Historical Photographs Accessions

The following is a list of the unprocessed Historical Photographs collections held in Manuscripts, Archives and Special Collections (MASC). For the most part these photographs are roughly in the state in which they were received, and intellectual access to them is limited. Most, but not all, of these collections are available to researchers, but users should be aware that they will have to determine which materials might be pertinent to their research needs. This listing is being made available for the convenience of researchers; portions of some collections may not be available for public use.

When requesting these materials, please be sure to indicate the name of the records, the accession number (for example, UPC 01 or UA2000-13), and the location number (if given).

This page is currently under construction, and is not yet complete; many of our unprocessed accessions are still not listed.
