Description

One in a series of 20 folders including photographs taken by Claire Kofsky or reproduced by her. Folder 7 is labeled "Glass plates and old photos 2 of 3" and consists entirely of reproduced photos. Most are in 5 x 7" format; a few are slightly larger. Appears to be similar content to that found in folder 6; it is not known as to why the contents from the two folders were separated, except perhaps to divide it to make the quantities of contents in each folder smaller and more manageable. 2011.31.7.1 Reprint of black and white photo of view of Church Lane as seen from the southeast corner of Market Square, late 19th century. 2011.31.7.2 Reprint of black and white photo of the Sparrow Jack House, northwest corner Germantown Avenue and West Upsal Street, early 20th century. 2011.31.7.3 Reprint of black and white photograph of the offices of the Germantown Telegraph at 5155 Germantown Avenue circa 1875. 2011.31.7.4-.5 Two reprints at different exposure levels, of the W.
