BOX 71; 137-140 Photographs, 1950s-1989
This series contains images of Pearl Bailey, Louie Bellson, their children, friends, and the many public figures they met and befriended during Bailey's career. Included are formal portraits of Bailey; "official" photographs with presidents, ambassadors, and cabinet officials; and more candid shots with Bellson and others.
These is an extensive set of slides documenting family activities, tours, and Bailey's travels. Each slide folder represents one set of images as received by the Music Division. File names derived from image content were assigned to the slides for ease of use. Dates for these materials come from the original slide boxes.
Additional topically specific photographs are located throughout the collection.
Materials include black and white contact sheets, black and white and color prints and negatives, color slides, and photograph albums.
Arranged alphabetically by file unit.
