1208 N. Charles St., children's room showing child and adult, circa 1892

The collection consists of three boxes with two albums and 19 folders, containing a total of 86 photoprints which are undated or dated 1892-1901, including albumen prints and matte collodian prints toned with platinum. Images are exterior and interior views of the Thom family home at 1208 North Charles Street, and of the Gordon family home at 14 East Franklin Street, both in Baltimore. The interior views are excellent examples of eclectic high style décor including furnishings, decorative objects, and wall and window treatments. One image depicts a children's bedroom with toys, and there is an overview of the 1200 block of North Charles Street.

There are also portraits of family members, including Douglas Hamilton Gordon and Anne Eliza Pleasants Gordon, with many unidentified individuals including children.
