Unidentified people, unknown dates. These nine black and white film negative strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. These images were created using five different film rolls, so some of the physical numbers on the strips are duplicated. For the purposes of this description, these strips will be grouped according to which film roll they originally came from. Each group will be assigned a lower-case letter to go along with the images' physical numbers (ex: 1a, 2a, 3a, 1b, 2b, 3b, etc.) to help differentiate between images. The images in group "a" show a gathering of people of all ages at a lake. Image 0a shows approximately 25 people gathered in an outdoor area under a tree and next to a building with a round emblem above the entrance. There is a man at the center bottom of the image wearing sunglasses and holding a beverage in a can. He is looking toward the left and laughing. Image 1a is very similar to image 0a, but the man is not laughing. Image 2a shows four people sitting in lawnchairs in the shade of a coniferous tree. One of the people is looking over their shoulder at the camera. There is a long line of cars parked to the right of the people sitting under the tree. Image 3a shows three children playing on a set of playground equipment made of metal pipes. One additional child is standing to the right of the equipment and facing away from the camera.

Image 7a shows one child in the foreground fishing off of a dock, and another child just beyond the first reaching into a bait container with one hand and holding onto a fishing line with the other. There are three other children and three adults furter down the dock. Image 8a shows a similar scene to that shown in image 7a, but the camera has panned to the left. There is a seated child in a sweatshirt fishing off of the dock. Image 15a shows a man in a cap and a jacket seated in a canoe and looking toward the camera. He appears to have a net with fish in it hanging off of the canoe and into the water, Image 16a shows a young woman standing in a boat and a man seated at the steering wheel of the boat. A second man is standing on the adajcent dock and helping guide the boat toward or away from the dock.
