Visual Materials
One boxed collection of photographic reproductions of an architectural nature, ca. 200 pieces, ranging in date from approximately 1935 to 1950. The collection contains images of family dwellings, churches, government buildings, architectural details, stone structures (e.g. Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids, the Sphinx), and structures from Antiquity, including early Greek and Roman periods. The collection is comprised primarily of Perry Pictures, University Prints, Brown's Pictures, and postcards. There are an additional few original black and white photographs of front doors to several different houses. This collection was assembled by Mabel Spofford; there are ms. notes on some items. The collection is housed within a paperboard box, addressed to Miss Mabel Spofford from University Prints. Written on the lid, in ms., is: "Architecture: Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Romanesque, Byzantine, Gothic, Renaissance, Modern." Title supplied by cataloger.
