2007-012.A371PDescription
Lacey Leader Offices, Unknown Dates. These four black and white contact print strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. These images show exterior shots of the home which was converted into their second office. These images were created using two separate film rolls, so some of the physical numbers on the strips are repeated. For the purposes of this description, these strips will be grouped according to the film roll from which they originally came. Each group will be assigned a lower-case letter to go along with the physical numbers on the strips (ex: 1a, 2a, 3a, 1b, 2b, 3b, etc.) to help differentiate between images. The corresponding film negative sleeve contained eight strips with many more images. This description will retain the numbers assigned to the corresponding film negatives for continuity.
The images in group "a" show a man (Ed Bagley) in a suit and tie posing in front of the second Lacey Leader office. Image 13a shows Ed Bagley standing to the left of a large sign in the yard in front of the office. His left hand is touching the sign. The sign reads "FUTURE SITE OF Your NEWSPAPER Lacey Leader." The sign is centered in the image. A portion of the Lacey Leader office is visible at the left-hand edge of the image. This image is oriented horizontally. Image 14a is nearly identical to the previous image. Image 15a is very similar to the previous image, but here the image is oriented vertically. Image 16a is nearly identical to image 15a. Image 17a is nearly identical to images 13a and 14a. Image 18a is nearly identical to image 15a. Image 19a is nearly identical to image 17a. Image 24a is similar to the previous images, but here the photographer has moved backward by approximately 10 feet. Here Mr. Bagley is no longer touching the sign. The entirety of the front of the office is visible in this image. The front door of the office building is off the hinges, and a ladder and pieces of wood are leaning up against the house. Image 25a is very similar to image 24a, but here a portion of a passing car is visible in the lower-left quadrant of the image. Images 26a and 27a are nearly identical to image 24a.
The images in group "b" also show the exterior of the second Lacey Leader office. Image 5b shows the office with two cars and two Volkswagen vans parked in front of it. One man and two women are standing amongst the vehicles and waving at the camera. Image 6b is very similar to the previous image, but here the three people are not waving. Images 7b and 8b are nearly identical to image 6b.Made/Created
