Among the political leaders featured are Huey P. Long, Earl K. Long, Richard Leche, O.K. Allen, and others. Negatives accompany some of the prints. Also included are a few miscellaneous prints from the Leon Trice Photography studio. The collection has been digitized and appears in the Louisiana Digital Library under the same title.
