Mayor Thomas J. Murphy Administration Photographs 1994-2005 photographs

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/297537853

The photographs of the Mayor Thomas Murphy Administration were arranged following the original organization and use of the papers in the Mayor's Office. In most cases, the photographs and papers are arranged based on the office which collected or created them. In other cases, items have been arranged due to their storage or use in the Mayor's Office, such as Campaign and Topical files. The arrangement of the photographs is also identical to the paper materials of the collection (MSS 499), allowing users to reestablish connections between the two formats. Most of the photographs in this collection contain Mayor Murphy himself, although some photographs in the Neighborhoods Coordinator and Topical Files sections simply document activites in the City of Pittsburgh.
