Photographic Materials

The materials in this series comprise 56 black and white photographs and 13 black and white negatives. The photographs and negatives dating from about the 1930s appear to be snapshots of children engaged in activities at a kindergarten-primary school. These are smaller than 4 x 5-inch formats. The professional photographs in 5 x 7 and 8 x 10-inch formats, some dated 1958 on the backs, were taken by the Oberlin College photographer. These document student teacher experiences in kindergarten and primary school settings, or they might have been made to document a particular kindergarten-primary school in Oberlin.
