Notes |
Title taken from that written on the cover of the original album, with punctuation added by the cataloguer. The photographs were moved, in the original order, to an archival album from the original. The Adirondack Experience also houses the negatives for most of these photographs as well, which can be searched for using the P numbers of the desired photograph(s). These negatives, some glass and some sheet, were catalogued first, hence why the P numbers for these images appear in a random order. The P numbers for these photos are (in numerical order, not in order of album): P084921 P084923-P084926 P084928 P084930 P085198 P085200 P085202 P085427-P085477 P085479-P085492 In this catalog, the images have been oriented the proper way. In the original album, and in the archival album, they were/are oriented in portrait mode as arranged originally. In the original album, the photographs were numbered 1-76, though number 56 is missing. In the archival album, one page is left blank to account for this. |
