Photographic collection, 1962-2002, and undated
21 cubic feet (in 43 boxes)
The collection consists mainly of undated photographs, both black and white and colored, of various sizes, proof sheets, some on cardboard, and some negatives documenting a wide variety of Central Michigan University (CMU) staff, students, programs, departments, special events, and related topics. Some of the portraits in the collection predate 1962. Also, some of the photographs in the collection were taken by private photographers. There are two alphabetical runs in this inventory due to the way the material was transferred to the Clarke and processed. Due to the size of this collection it could not be interfiled into the earlier CMU. Photographs collection in file cabinets. After 2002, all CMU photographs were taken with digital cameras. Peggy Brisbane and her husband, Robert Barclay, took many of these photographs. Mugs means Mugshots. This is a term used by the photographers in the collection.
