Retired originals collection, 1860-1965 (bulk 1880-1920).

Approximately 290 photographs (collodion, gelatin, carte-de-viste, tintype, cabinet card, etc.) dating from the 1860s to the 1960s. These originals were removed from the "A-board photograph collection" for preservation reasons and replaced with substitute copies. The A-board photograph collection contains photographs that were mounted onto boards, cataloged individually, and located in filing cabinets. There are three groups, Utah State University (USU) boards; Compton Photograph Studio genre and landscape scenes from Box Elder County, and miscellaneous images. Most of the photographs are of Utah State University, Cache Valley, or Utah scenes. The remainder are formal studio portraits, photos from Mormon history, or images of the American West.
