Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The collection is divided into three series based on content. Series I contains photographs of actors, actresses, opera singers, and performances ranging in date from the 1870’s to 1912, which are arranged by size and alphabetically by actor last name. Several of the photographs have handwritten notes on the back about the performance and production company related to the image. “The Theatre” prints, Series II, are organized by date of publication. Those which a specific date could not be determined were included with similar items for a best approximation of date. Series III includes photographs from a Peale Museum exhibition on the history of theater and are organized by size and alphabetically by the performer’s last name. These items are similar to the photographs in Series I.

Items in Box 2 were found after the collection had been processed and added in 2015.
