Arrangement
The collection is arranged in series by photo size, with subseries corresponding to the collections from which the photos were separated.
Custodial History
The materials were transferred to the Archives from the Office of the Director of Exhibitions and Collections in 2007.
Processing Information
These materials were filed in folders with subject headings. The content of the images did not always correspond with the subject headings, but the original order was maintained. Many of the photographs have little or no identifying information. When no information was available, a general attempt was made to describe the subject matter.
In 2022 Mario Cesareo revised the folder and box order.
