The collection consists of individual aerial photographs (maps) and indexes. The
majority of the collection consists of images of Whitman County and the Pullman
region, but additional sets of photographic indexes to two other Washington counties
are included, as are a sequence documenting the lower Columbia River. Virtually all
of the sets of photographs are incomplete.
The photographs are foldered in sets and organized primarily with preservation in
mind, with the more commonly used (Pullman/Whitman regions) above the less often
used. Pullman-region images are first, listed chronologically, then Whitman County,
again chronologically, followed by the remaining two folders, with the more fragile
Columbia River photographs located beneath the others.
The collection has been digitized and is available online as part
of the Early Washington Maps digital collection.
This collection is open and available for research use.
