Idaho photograph collection
Scope and Contents
Photographs featuring displays and exhibits, conventions, scenery, logging, mining, ranching, farming, Indians, horses, celebrities, and other Idaho subjects. Donor and photographer information, if known, is included with the item description or item itself. Some images are from outside of Idaho and it is presumed that the donor or photographer has an Idaho connection and that is why these images were added to this collection.
The numbering system was devised by Special Collections staff. Negatives and oversized prints are housed separately - negatives in the Copy Negatives area near Day-NW and oversized prints in the oversized metal cabinets.
