Harrison numbered, named, and dated the following list of 244 projects that span
the years of 1934 to 1956. The projects are listed in approximate chronological
order. The complete list, as prepared by Harrison, is given here; although not all
of the projects are represented in the collection. A copy of the list prepared by
Harrison is included in the inventory in Part IV. A note about Harrison’s
numbering system. The numbers 73, 173, 174, 217, 221 236 and 237 were skipped;
some projects were interpolated in the series as 9a., 10a, 80a, 191a and 115a. Two
projects share the number 111. Number 179 was omitted from his list, but a project
number 179 exists. A project 244 was also added to the list. Furthermore, there
are some projects that overlap, containing images that were modified for use in
more than one project. Some of these related projects are point out in the
inventory by way of cross-references. Items are listed in the following manner: unit title, publication title and date of publication |

“The northern hemisphere on this map is on the

“One of a Latin-American series. Long and skinny Chile is always a problem in sheet composition. Here it is solved by lifting up and towards the reader the important central section.
