Album 2- Animals, parks, portraits, Baltimore city, houses, festivals, and scenic views, circa 1900-1917

The collection, housed in two boxes, consists of two photograph albums containing roughly 162 and 444 gelatin silver photoprints, respectively, and just over 500 loose photographs. The photographs in the albums and about 460 of the loose photographs are thought to have been made by William M. Carter circa 1900-1917, primarily of Baltimore scenes: buildings (houses, stores, churches, schools, and other public buildings), construction and destruction in the city, bridges, night and winter scenes, landscapes and seascapes, animals, parks (Druid Hill, Patterson, River View, and others), railroads, festivals and sporting events. There are also many unidentified portraits of groups and individuals, including children. Another set of ca. 50 photoprints (gelatin silver, tintype, and albumen prints including cabinet cards and cartes de visite) are studio portraits of unidentified men, women and children.

Very few of the photographs are captioned or dated.
