Unidentified people, unknown dates. These fifteen black and white film negative strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. The images contained in this sleeve were created using many different film rolls, so many of the physical numbers on the strips are repeated multiple times. For the purposes of this description, these strips will be grouped according to which film roll they originally came from. Each of these groups 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 images in group "a" show six different men, five of which are shown in portrait format. Image 3a shows a man with prominent sideburns in a suit and patterned tie. His body and head are oriented toward his left. There are two windows partially visible behind him. Image 4a is nearly identical to the previous image, but the photographer has either zoomed in slightly or moved closer to the subject. Image 5a shows the same man in a very similar pose, but his head and body are oriented toward his left. Image 6a is nearly identical to the previous image, but the man appears to be speaking. Image 7a is very similar to image 5a, but two sides of a window frame are visible behind the man. Image 8a shows a man with nearly shoulder-length hair wearing a polo short with a large collar. The man has a large smile on his face, and his head and body are oriented toward his left. Image 9a is nearly identical to image 8a. Image 10a is very similar to the previous two images, but the man's head and body are oriented toward his right. Image 11a is nearly identical to image 10a. Image 12a shows a man with medium-length, wavey hair with a mustache wearing a paisley-patterned, button-up shirt. His head and body are oriented toward his left. Image 13a is very similar to the previous image, but the man's head and body are oriented toward his right. There is an electrical outlet visible near the bottom-left corner of the image. Image 14a shows the same man from the previous two images, but here he is shown from the waist-up. The image was also captured from approximately waist-level on the man, looking up toward his face. Image 16a shows a man with shoulder-length hair, glasses, and a beard. He is wearing a collared shirt with piping on the collar and shoulders. His head and body are oriented toward his left. He is not smiling. Image 17a is very similar to the previous image, but the man's head and body are oriented toward his right. He appears to be speaking. Image 18a shows the man with his head and body oriented directly toward the camera. He is smiling. Image 19a shows the same man, but the image was captured from the height of his chest and looking up toward his face. His head and body are turned slightly toward his left. Image 20a is very similar to the previous image, but the man's head and body are oriented directly toward the camera. Image 31a shows a balding man in a wide-collared shirt seated at a desk and operating what appears to be an adding machine. The man has a folded piece of paper or similar item in his shirt pocket, along with two writing utensils. The man is operating the machine with his right hand, and his left hand is partially visible resting in his lap. Image 32a is very similar to the previous image, but the photographer has lowered the camera slightly. Here the man's left hand is not visible.

Image 8b shows a man with glasses and a Van Dyke-style beard posing for portrait photos. He is wearing a collared sweater or cardigan. His head and body are oriented toward his left. Image 9b is very similar to the previous image, but the man's head and body are oriented toward his right. Image 10b is very similar to the previous image, but the photographer has zoomed out or moved away slightly from the subject. Image 11b shows an issue of the Lacey Leader laying on a desk. The issue may still be in a formatiing/layout phase prior to mass printing. Image 12b shows a blurred shot looking out of a window on a street scene. Image 22b shows a stretch of grassy ground. Image 23b shows several people who appear to be in the stands at a track meet speaking to eachother.

Image 24b also shows spectators at a track meet. Just below the center of the image is a person wearing a beanie-style cap and a plaid shirt or jacket. All of the people in the foreground are facing away from the camera. Image 25b shows a man with wavy hair and glasses wearing a button-up, collared shirt posing for a portrait photograph. The next image is nearly identical to image 25b, but the two images are partially overlapping, making this image not coincide with the physical number 26 on the strip The images in group "c" show two men and one woman posing for portrait photographs. Image 28c shows a man with straight hair wearing a plaid suit and tie. His body is oriented toward his left, but he is directly facing the camera and smiling.

Image 10d shows a man in a striped, short-sleeve button-up shirt seated in a chair in front of a window. He is looking at a document held in his right hand. He appears to be in a living room. He is shown in profile in this image. Image 11d shows the man still holding the document, but looking toward the camera. The background shows a portion of the living room and a dining room. Image 12d is similar to the previous image, but the photographer has moved away or zoomed out from the subject.

The left-hand side of the display is visible in the background. Images 15d and 16d are nearly identical to image 14d. Image 17d again shows the right-hand half of the display, but here the perspective is from almost immediately in front of the display. The left-hand half of the display is not visible in this image. Image 18d gain shows the left-hand portion of the display. Image 19d shows a woman seated at a work table. Based on the various tools and equipment visible in the image, the woman is presumably a graphic designer or similar type of artist. In this image, the woman is looking down at her work and her hair is obscuring her entire face. Image 20d is very similar to the previous image, but here the woman is looking over at the camera. Image 21d shows the woman looking toward the camera and smiling or laughing. The images in group "e" show a woman bending down and manipulating a mannequin's head, presumably to demonstrate how to administer CPR.
