Scope and Content Note
Collection #4-3-2882 consists of photographic negatives and prints created by the Photo
Science/Photographic Services division of Cornell University. Images include individual
and group portraits, publicity photographs, Vet School photographs, illustrations for
textbooks, project photographs, construction photographs, campus scenes, athletics and
others. In the 1960s through the 1980s a large number of the images were taken for the
Hotel School, CUAA, ILR, Vet College, Physical Education and various campus organizations
such as the Big Red Band and the Glee Club.
A job list of the negatives in numerical and chronological order, as recorded by the
Photo Sciences/Photo Services division, containing negative number, date, subject, and
customer is available (not all negatives listed are contained in this collection).
Publicity portraits and passport photos are not listed in the job log.
An index to the negatives is available for the years 1947-1957, for other photographs
can be accessed using the job log.
The box list for the collection indicates the range of negatives within each box. For
the portraits, the alphabetical range and years are listed. Portraits are in alphabetical
order in two different groups: publicity and passport photos 1945-1979; Passport photos
1979-1990.
Images in this collection may be found through the use of the index and/or through use
of the job log. If subject and date are known, an image can often be located in the list
of jobs.
