Sub-Series III: Albums/Framed,, 1953-1980.
Dates
- 1953-1980.
Scope and Contents
Albums/Framed includes photos that were originally in albums and in frames. The photos were removed from both the albums and frames to conserve space and also to preserve them.
There were fourteen albums in total, some so large that they had to be split into multiple folders. The subjects ranged from HAW's campaigns to various overseas trips, including to China and Eastern Europe in the late 1970s. The date range of the albums spanned 1959-1979. The subjects of the photos taken out of frames were also assorted but many of them showed HAW interacting with various Presidents and supporters. There are also scenic landscapes and monuments in Washington, D.C. interspersed with HAW's posed photos.
Inscribed photos can be found throughout this sub-series and are so noted in the Access database.

Arrangement
Arrangement is albums followed by framed items, arranged alphabetically by subject within each. To make the source of the photos clear, reference to either Album or Frame was added by the archivist to the folder description. Photos removed from albums were foldered in the order of how they were found in the albums.
Generally, the folder subject description was imposed by the archivist based on the subject of the photos. However, in those instances in which albums had an original title, those titles were used. The Access database indicates the source of the description. The original titles of the albums containing photos of trips abroad included numbers, which likely referred to some sequence. This number was retained in the folder description. The majority of the dates for the photos in frames could not be determined but those that could be determined by the archivist were dated.
Container 322 is an oversized flat box that holds the larger photographs removed from frames.
Appraisal and Discard Information
All photos found in albums or frames were kept.
General
Index Terms
