Views of the work of the Reid H. Ray Film Industries Co., St. Paul, Minn. (successor to Ray-Bell Films Inc. ca. 1947-1948). Includes views of employees, film crews on location, studio filming and equipment. Many of the photoprints document work done for "Horizon North" and "Teamwork on the Mesabi," films on the iron ore industry in Minnesota. Many of the photoprints were photographed by Gordon Ray, a photographer, writer and director at the company. The collection also includes photoprints taken by Ray, possibly not related to a company project. The accompanying print materials include proposals, scripts and storyboards for various film projects, essays by Gordon Ray on film techniques and uses, and miscellaneous items relating to the company. Compiled by Gordon R. Ray.
