Note
Notes: Information about who assembled and captioned the materials is not indicated. The brittle condition of the mounting leaves and newsclippings has led to the loss of some captioning or printed text. A few original photographs that have detached from some leaves were mounted with paste and have typewritten general information about the image including reference to a negative number (no negatives are present in this archive.) At some future time, the de-mounting of the photos will be necessary due to the continuing deterioration of the album paper. Information on the reverse will be documented.
