The Visual Materials series, 1969-1984? (4 linear feet) is made up, for the most part, of color slides. Other materials found are some illustrations, negatives, prints, a few maps, and digital scans of crania and bones, a small number of transparencies, and some X-Rays housed as oversize materials. Among these materials there are 27 Kodak slide boxes that are part of a group. These boxes are numbered and the slides have some minimal description of the content. The majority of materials show crania, bones, teeth and mandibles. For most of the contents here there is limited date and context information.
