Photographs of inmates (negatives), [1930s]-[1970s].

Both a side and front view of each inmate are included on each negative. Each negative shows a case file number on a "menu board" below the inmate. Early negatives show only the case file number; later negatives are labeled with "Minnesota State Prison" and the inmate's last name, case file number, height, weight, date of birth, and assumed date of incarceration. The inmates are in prison uniforms and/or street clothes. Some inmates have one or more negatives from multiple incarcerations.
