Film transparencies
Visual Materials
This collection consists of 63 photographic prints and 87 black-and-white transparencies documenting the California Botanic Garden in approximately 1928, the year it opened to the public in Los Angeles County. The prints are 8 x 10 inches and are stamped with the credit of the "Dick" Whittington Studio, and depict overviews of the garden, walking paths, a waterfall, and a variety of plantings throughout the canyon, along with administrative offices, visitors, and a portrait of president Elmer D. Merrill. The film transparencies appear to show opening day festivities, 1928, with tree plantings, speakers and guests, and students with posters promoting the garden. The actress Mary Pickford, a supporter, poses in a few images. Contact prints of the transparencies were made by the Library and are available to view in Box 1.

Contact prints and contact print negatives
Manuscripts
This subseries contains contact prints of the photograph albums and were used as circulating copies in the reading room prior to the digitization of the original albums in 2016. Note: Many of the contact print images are of poor quality. The albums were photographed in in 1976, prior to the donation of the originals in 1983, when the Shepard family loaned the albums to the Library for the purpose of copying. Each photograph was copied (and each page of the album was also copied in its entirety) on thirty-five millimeter roll film. Contact prints of these photographs were assembled and made available for reference. Image reproductions made from the contact prints were ordered using the numbers printed on the negatives (in addition to the JPL album number and volume number). The contact print negatives were removed from Boxes 513-516 and are now housed 20 3-ring binders, binders 1-20.
