	Series III: Graphic Materials
		200 black-and-white photos, 30 film negatives
		Original and copy negatives are filed sequentially, by digital ID number. Since not all prints have matching negatives, there are gaps between numbers. The prints are filed alphabetically within “People A-Z,” and geographically in “Landscapes and Views.” The result is that the digital IDs reflect digital rather than sequential order. The digital IDs are given below, in the order in which they are housed in the boxes. In photos with multiple individuals, names given reflect left-to right identification of individuals depicted.

				These photos were taped into Linscott’s copy of her book (in Box 14). In order to represent the digitized images in the original order among the book pages, it was necessary to assign each photo an “ms” number (to indicate a manuscript item), rather than a “ph” number (to indicate a photographic item). Most of the photos are similar to other photos in this collection, and these instances are noted below.
