Georgia photographs, circa 1917-1921.

Many of the University of Georgia photographs include views of the College of Agriculture, dance/drama scenes, and Sanford Field. The World War I training camp scenes are all unidentified as far as location, but could possibly be scenes at Camp Stephens near Gainesville, Georgia.

Sheppard who, judging from the contents of the letters, could possibly have had something to do with the production of these photographs.
