Description

Ten photo strips (44 images), all from February 1976, showing frontal upper-body and face shots of nine different unidentified individuals (3 women, 6 men). The first five photos (images #15-19; dated 2-21-76) show a 40s-50s year old woman wearing a mock turtleneck sweater as well as a pair of necklaces and a checkered coat. The next five photos (same date; #21-25) show a woman in her 20s, wearing a pullover rounded neck shirt and a necklace with a Christian (fish with internal cross) pendant. The final set of five photos from 2-21-76 (#24-29) shows 50s-60s year old man wearing glasses and a Lee jeans jacket over a pullover shirt; in four of these photos there is a wood-grained background (paneling?). The other photos in this envelope are all from 2-28-76. Five images (#8-12) show Terrie Bodenhamer of the Bank of Olympia (nametag), a 20s-30s year old woman; in several of these pictures there are windows in the background, some showing trees outside. The next four images (#21-24) show a 40s-50s year old man with glasses in a coat and tie. The next five images (#26-30) show similar aged man (no glasses), also in coat and tie. The next two images (#35-36) are of a 40s-50s year old man in a shirt and coat with a paisley tie--and the first two images (#37-38) of the next strip are of this same individual. The final three images of this strip (#39-41) are of a young man (probably in his early twenties) dressed in a highly decorated shirt showing a stylized woman overlooking a decorative divider in a garden area; this young man also is in the first frame (#42) of the next photo strip. The next strip (#42-44 and #1-2), in addition to the one photo of the young man with the decorated shirt, is focused on a picture of a mustached man in his 4s-50s, also in a coat and tie. This man is the sole focus of the last three photos (#3-5) in this envelope.

Inscription/Signature/Marks

Type

Date, Chop

Location

The dates are shown on the back sides of the photo strips in all cases. The chop marks (and indications of pica size) are on the fronts of images #17, #21, and #27 of the 2-21-76 images. For the 2-28-76 images the chop marks (and indications of pica size) are on #12, #22, #35, #41, and #2.

Transcription

8.5 picas or 11.5 picas; 2-21-76, 2-28-76. There also are a couple of 1-28-76 notations (on #36-36 and #3-5 of the 2-28-76 strips) that are clearly in error, since the frame numbers and clothing on the subjects clearly indicate they were shot at the same time as the photos inscribed as 2-28-76.
