Color photoprints and negative, 1974 - 1978

The collection consists of one box with seven folders containing 100 photoprints and 12 negatives, which are undated or dated 1973-1985. The photoprints include color and polaroid snapshots and larger format b/w photoprints mounted on boards. Subjects are mostly unidentified, but include residential and industrial views in the Canton area.

There are images of neighborhood events (some apparently sponsored by the Canton Improvement Association), including a 1978 Canton Day Parade attended by Barbara Mikulski, a 1979 event attended by Mayor William Donald Schaefer, a demonstration in support of the Lemko Towers senior citizen residence, and the development of a park space at the corner of O'Donnell Street and South Decker Avenue. Specific structures include Canton Methodist Church, Saint Brigid's Second Church, Canton Evangelical, and the Enoch Pratt Free Library branch at Ellwood and O'Donnell Streets. Other images include Canton homes and businesses, recreation facilities, industrial apparatus, and decrepit sites and structures. Canton residents are sometimes identified, usually by first name only; those identified include Tom Canole, Ken Moore, and Tom Hopes. There are a few images of streets in Georgetown (Washington, D.C.).

Collection also includes two folders of printed ephemera, including maps, invitations, programs, and brochures pertaining to organizations and community events in Baltimore in the 1970s and 1980s.
