The photographic positives (ektapan "inner positives") includes images copied from original negatives in Jack London's negative collection; many of the positives duplicate images also found in the photograph albums held in the series below. The original negatives are now deposited with the State of California. Since these positives were made directly from the negatives, without going through a print process, the quality is generally good.
