Content DescriptionReturn to Top

This is an artificial collection of photographs, in a variety of formats, gathered from a variety of sources. The majority of the images in this collection are of individuals from Montana and locations in Montana.

A number of the images were originally part of the University of Montana's Northwest History Collection, the precursor of what is now called Archives and Special Collections. The majority of the images arrived at the university prior to the 1980s and in many cases the context of creation / provenance of the images and the photographer are unknown. Some of the images were likely removed from related manuscript collections at the time of their donation to the university. Some of the images are copies of originals held by other institutions; as this relationship is discovered, notes are added to this collection guide. A small number of the images are actually photographs of paintings, newspaper articles and documents.

Digital copies of the materials in Boxes 1 through 21 are available online at https://umt.box.com/v/Mss562MontanaPhotographs. These digital copies were created in 2009 and are meant for reference only.
