Arrangement
The photographs arrived pre-arranged and numbered. There were two donations by Mr. Anderson, one in 1994 and one in 1995. Each collection begins with either a 1994 number or 1995 number, indicating the date of which the donation was given. The two collections were donated by the same person and therefore are considered one collection.
Immediate Source of Acquisition
The collection was acquired by Julius Anderson and donated to the Baltimore City Life Museum in 1994 and 1995.
