Index to Conservation Dept. Photographic Prints and Negatives, 1904-1949.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122583234

This series consists of 5,206 positive contact prints made from duplicate negatives from series 14297, Conservation Dept. Photographic Prints and Negatives and functions as a visual index to that series. The index was created as a result of a grant received by the State Archives in approximately 1996 from the National Endowment for the Humanities. This NEH grant allowed State Archives staff to undertake a preservation project by which duplicate negatives and contact prints were created for most of the negatives in series 14297. This index consists of numbered positive contact prints made from those duplicate negatives.
