Wallace Richter Red & Black and Pandora negatives
|
Requires cookie* |
|
Creator: |
Richter, Henry Wallace |
|
|
Dates: |
1941-1943 |
|
|
Contents: |
The Richter collection contains over 600 negatives from 1941-1943. Positive images have been scanned by the Photoservices
Unit of the Digital Library of Georgia and are available at the beginning of the collection. The information used in the inventory
consists largely of the information recorded by Richter on his storage envelopes. The envelopes were arranged alphabetically
by the information recorded by Richter, but have been rearranged in five broad categories: campus groups, locations, and events;
World War II at UGA; university athletics; fraternities and sororities; and individual portraits.
In a few instances, damage to an envelope obliterated information. In several other cases the negatives were damaged, but
images were still taken from them for historical interest.
