Scope and Contents:
The photographic materials series contains photographs, panoramic prints, negatives, slides, and snapshots. There is one photograph album of friends and family which includes a small amount of printed materials. Also included is one glass plate ambrotype. Subjects depicted in these materials include Allan Randall Freelon, his paintings; his Telford, Pennsylvania studio, Windy Crest; cities and harbors, possibly as reference for paintings; and friends and family. There is also a large batch of miscellaneous photographs that were in numbered envelopes that included partial lists of the subjects in the photographs. Some of these photographs appear to be duplicates of images that can be found in other folders in this series.
Arrangement:
The photograph album is at the beginning of the series. Most of the series is arranged in alphabetical order by subject. There are several batches of photographs that are grouped together at the end of the series that are in numerical order by batch.
