Subseries I-B(1): Personality Photographs Medium (PPM)
Scope and Contents
Subseries I-B: Personality Medium (PM) consists of 5” x 8” files (sometimes referred to as “card size” files in earlier descriptions and indices). This subseries includes both photographs (7.7 linear feet) and clippings (57 linear feet). Because of the smaller file size, the files in this subseries tend to contain fewer items per file than the PL files. Consequently, there are fewer files on prominent or famous people in this particular subseries. This series notably seems to contain many of the small, submitted head shot photographs, such as for marriage or engagement announcements. Most obituary clippings, if present in the collection, are found in this subseries.
