scopecontent
{"value"=>"<p>Smaller Formats contain 4x5 inch-, 120mm- and 35mm- sized acetate and polyester negatives. Larger Formats mostly contain 5x7 inch-sized polyester negatives. Selections include negatives of all sizes whose images were apparently chosen by clients or selected for publication and kept separate from the rest of the collection.</p> <p>Negatives are housed in paper negative sleeves, frequently containing numerous strips or small groups of separate negative frames from the same photo session. The collection holds approximately 4,030 such negative sleeves, most containing numerous images. No consistent identification scheme is present, but most sleeves do include very short descriptions and dates, which have been retained together with the sleeved negatives. Researchers may wish to consult the handwritten index lists found in Series III for clues as to the content of the negatives in this series.</p>"}
arrangement
{"value"=>"<p>Arranged into Smaller Format; Larger Format; and Selections. The Smaller and Larger Format negatives are each ordered in very rough alphabetical ranges by subject. Selections negatives remain in the shuffled or random order in which they were acquired.</p>"}
